The document discusses digital trust frameworks, which define rules for interactions between organizations handling digital identity, authentication, and authorization. It provides an example of how a trust framework allows a festival organization to easily verify a resident's identity with telco providers to give out free flags. The key benefits of trust frameworks are lowering negotiation burdens between organizations and enabling interoperability by having all parties comply with the framework's protocols, standards, and policies. The document encourages the reader to get involved with the Kantara Initiative, a non-profit focused on developing innovations for trusted online experiences.
