In response to a request to CSTB from the United States Government's Chief Counselor for Privacy, CSTB has framed an assessment of emerging approaches to authentication in computing and communications systems that focuses on the implications of authentication technologies for privacy. This assessment of authentication technologies would examine the state of the art and relevant trends. It would put the technology into a larger context: it would consider technical and nontechnical trends, addressing both the nature of capabilities and their implementation, and the nature of procedural and other nontechnical protections and their enforceability. It would examine differences in concerns associated with public sector versus private sector uses of authentication technologies. Attention would be paid to the likelihood of different mixes of options (e.g., diverse techniques to accommodate, a diverse population and set of needs versus narrower standardization for economic reasons. A report will be produced by the committee and subject to NRC approval. It will describe authentication technologies, the interplay of technical and nontechnical aspects of authentication, and the implications of alternative approaches for privacy; it will make recommendations about fostering relevant research and shaping appropriate policy. It will be distributred to the computer science and privacy communities, associated organizations, consumer organizations, and government agencies and the congress. Web distribution, briefings, discussions at key conferences and in relevant National Academies venues, and articles and announcements in journals and newsletters would be important to getting the word out and furthering discussion. The dissemination process would be launched by a public briefing about the report.

应美国政府首席隐私顾问向 CSTB 提出的请求，CSTB 对计算和通信系统中新兴的身份验证方法进行了评估，重点关注身份验证技术对隐私的影响。 对认证技术的评估将审查现有技术和相关趋势。 它将把技术置于更大的背景下：它将考虑技术和非技术趋势，解决能力及其实施的性质，以及程序和其他非技术保护的性质及其可执行性。 它将研究与公共部门和私营部门使用身份验证技术相关的担忧的差异。 将关注不同选择组合的可能性（例如，适应不同的技术、多样化的人口和需求，与出于经济原因而进行的较窄的标准化）。委员会将编写一份报告，并经 NRC 批准。它将描述身份验证技术、身份验证的技术和非技术方面的相互作用，以及替代隐私方法的影响；它将提出有关促进 相关研究并制定适当的政策。 它将分发给计算机科学和隐私社区、相关组织、消费者组织、政府机构和国会。 网络分发、简报、重要会议和相关国家科学院场所的讨论以及期刊和时事通讯中的文章和公告对于宣传和进一步讨论非常重要。 传播过程将通过有关该报告的公开简报启动。
