TrustID has joined the Open Identity Exchange (OIX) community to better understand the developing opportunities and to play a key role in the ongoing evolution of digital ID verification.

The OIX is a non-profit trade organisation offering education, information and collaboration around the topic of universally trusted identity. OIX is a community for all those involved in the ID sector to connect and collaborate, developing the guidance needed for inter-operable, trusted identities.

The foundation of any digital identity is robust physical identity verification during enrolment. So, our range of identity services will be more relevant than ever when it comes to issuing a digital identity. As technology evolves and remote, online, and digital identity verification become increasingly important, TrustID is keen to identify new opportunities for the continued development of our services. The OIX community is a great place to be able to do that. As one of the first providers in the UK to be certified under the UK trust framework, we also want to be part of the collective OIX voice that is helping to shape the UK’s trust framework.

Nick Mothershaw, Chief Identity Strategist at OIX, said: “Our work is playing a key role in influencing and shaping trust frameworks around the globe, including the architecture of the trust framework in the UK, with the ultimate goal to ensure digital ID works well for every party in the digital ID ecosystem. We are delighted to be able to welcome TrustID to the OIX community and we are confident that they will bring as much valuable insight to our mission as we will to their vision and growth plans.”
