ACT News, March 2018 … The Hartford’s Jim Rogers, a driving force behind our industry initiative ID Federation since its inception, briefed the audience on recent progress for its advanced password-management technology called “SignOn Once.”
ID Federation is a nonprofit coalition of agents, carriers, solution providers, associations and user groups. “The goal”, Rogers outlined, “is to allow insurance professionals and consumers to get right down to business instead of fumbling with password clues, resets, and failed access.” Each user receives a unique identity token with their distinct credentials allowing ongoing access to participating SignOn Once solution providers and carriers. “It provides a seamless, standardized, secure method of connectivity,” he said.
