Malcolm Crompton - an introduction to the public-eGov forum

Amit Parashar & Jose Alonso have kindly invited me to join as an Invited
Expert to the public-eGov forum.  I am very pleased to accept.

I hope to bring experience to the discussion based on:

*  Working in the Australian Public Service from 1975 to 1996, serving in
the Senior Executive Service for about half that time and working
specifically on public management reform matters 1992-1995

*  Serving as Privacy Commissioner of Australia 1999-2004

*  Establishing Information Integrity Solutions, an information governance
consultancy where we have contributed to global thought leadership in the
area.

We are currently privacy strategists to the Australian Government
Information Management Office as it develops its personalised, simplified
sign-on service portal.

Recent papers of possible relevance that we have produced include:

*  the Cisco "Safe to Play" paper for which we were the lead consultants.
The paper specifically considers how governments can make it 'safe to play'
for the citizen in a Government 2.0 environment where risks include
excessive surveillance of activity and risk shifting by government onto the
citizen.  

*  "Use Cases for Identity Management in E-Government", IEEE Security and
Privacy, vol. 6, no. 2, pp. 51-57, Mar/Apr, 2008, online at
http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/mags/sp/&to
c=comp/mags/sp/2008/02/msp02toc.xml&DOI=10.1109/MSP.2008.51. 

The Safe to Play paper and our other publications are all online at
www.iispartners.com/publications.html.  I blog occasionally at
www.openforum.com.au/blogs/malcolm-crompton.  The latest blog, "Identity
Management in New Zealand, CeBIT Australia and the Merry Month of May ..."
reflects on identity management issues, especially for interaction with
government.

Regards to all

Malcolm Crompton

Got it and upgraded it already!

Unfortunately, teleconferences are at a difficult time for you, since they
are scheduled at 15:00 CET, 23:00 in Australia...
At least, minutes will be made available right afterwards.

I encourage you to send an intro message to the list <public-egov-ig@w3.org>
to which you are now subscribed as a Group participant.

Thank you!
J.
