The Australian government has accredited a private sector digital identity exchange operator under the country’s Trusted Digital Identity Framework (TDIF), enabling the use of the payments network’s ConnectID solution across a wide range of online transactions that require digital ID verification. There is a new system and solution that allows consumers to authenticate their identity by linking to a verified digital ID held by a trusted provider and sharing their personal credentials with merchants, public services, government departments and other organisations. TDIF accreditation will support industry adoption of digital identity to drive security and productivity in the digital economy.
