AVISIAN Publishing is pleased to announce the release of the interactive version of the Winter 2015 Regarding ID magazine.
The interactive feature enables a miniature mode that you can thumb through as well as a full screen mode that enables you to read the magazine as if it were on the desk in front of you.
Some highlights from this issue include:
Wallet holds DNA for digital ID
In the “real world” there are plenty of ways to assert an identity. There is no equivalent in the digital world, identities are self- asserted and vetting is questionable at best. This is changing, however, as digital identity providers are realizing they can piggyback on the in-person vetting done by driver license, passport, registered traveler, bank card and other issuers.
Protecting kids’ online identities
Apps and games can be educational for children, but care must be taken to protect them online. New initiatives are changing the way we protect kids’ identities, ensure age verification and promote parental consent.
Municipal governments issuing IDs
Municipal ID card programs are helping local governments enable and control access to city services. Residents that can’t obtain traditional IDs are using the city-issued cards to open bank accounts, visit food banks, check into health clinics and more.
Clear IDs resurrected at airports, stadiums
The registered traveler program that made headlines a decade ago has been reborn. Today, Clear cards are being accepted at more than a dozen airports and are also easing access at Major League Baseball stadiums from New York to San Francisco.
