Evolution of Digital Identity and its Role in Background Screening w/ Taylor Liggett and Chuck Walker
Do you know who's accessing your information online? Digital identity can be defined in many ways. In today’s HRchat episode, we’ll talk specifically about a digital ID for an individual; a person’s information in an online world where their identity can be created, verified, appended, and shared in part or in whole.
Most of us in the US and Canada are, rightfully, cautious about how organizations can access our online info and digital personal brand as part of the recruitment process.
In this HRchat episode, Bill speaks with Chuck Walker and Taylor Liggett about the evolution of digital identity and its role in background screening. Sterling is on a mission to ensure verified information is owned by and easily accessible to, the individual. They believe digital identity verification should only have to occur once and Personal Identity Information should only be shared, when necessary.
Questions Include:
- What is one’s digital identity and why should employees care?
- In general terms, what controls do employees have over who can access their information?
- How did we get to the current state of digital identity?
- Canada is progressing with its federal digital identity scheme named Pan-Canadian Trust Framework, piloted by the Digital ID Authentication Council of Canada, a non-profit organization (DIACC). A national proof of concept project for a unified login authentication service called Sign In Canada started in the fall of 2018. Sterling Backcheck recently joined the DIACC. Can you talk a little bit about DIACC? Why did Sterling decide to join this initiative?
- What is a digital identity wallet and how might one use it?
- Why should companies verify identity and what benefits does it deliver?
