Roadmap

As the CDT continues to expand real-world implementation and solidify the technology and policy elements of the Digital ID Framework we are focusing on the following projects for 2024:

  • Implementing the California Identity Gateway:
    • Continue to expand transit discount delivery
      • In partnership with Cal-ITP, the CDT will continue to support implementation of the existing transit discount system to new transit agencies across California, such as with Sac-RT.
    • Pursue additional MVPs
      • The CDT continues to engage with new state agencies to identify opportunities to improve verification processes for a wide array of state services and benefits.
    • Onboard new IDPs and eligibility providers
      • The CDT’s current efforts are focused on identifying new integrations that can provide information about Californians’ income, such as with Calfresh.
  • Developing Statewide Policy:
    • Finalize the Digital ID framework
      • The CDT is working to finalize the Digital ID framework and its associated policies, and will publish additional guidance for state agencies in the coming year.
    • Engage with additional policy authorities
      • To enact the policies associated with the Digital ID Framework the CDT is collaborating with other statewide authorities such as the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC).
  • Developing Statewide Digital Credentials:
    • Establish a style guide and minimum standards
      • The CDT is working to develop guidance for state agencies on the issuance and use of digital credentials that will standardize and improve the user experience for digital state-issued passes, certificates, and benefits.
    • Developing tools to make digital credential issuance easier
      • CDT is developing tools that state agencies can use to streamline and automate elements of credential issuance to speed uptake.
