NSTIC NPO Announces 2015 Pilot Project Funding

All,

FYI: 
http://nstic.blogs.govdelivery.com/2015/02/12/breaking-news-nstic-npo-announces-2015-pilot-project-funding/

Specifically, we are seeking to fund pilots that address challenges such as:

  * Concerns about the impact on privacy and civil liberties arising
    from the crossing of contextual boundaries and the capacity for more
    tracking and profiling inherent in federated identity solutions
  * The usability of strong authentication technologies
  * Balancing transparency to individual users and ease-of-use
  * Building security, privacy, and usability into commonly used
    architectures (e.g., RESTful API architectures) to manage access to
    personal data
  * Limited deployment of successful trust frameworks—especially
    addressing multiple sectors
  * Lack of commonly accepted technical standards for interoperability
    among solutions
  * Lack of strong authentication solutions that can be used across
    multiple sectors and relying parties (RPs)
  * Lack of clarity on liability and other complex economic issues
    (e.g., “who is liable if something goes wrong in a transaction?” 
    “How – if at all – should transactions be monetized?”) .
