Kantara Initiative’s UMA WG webinar: UMA explained – listen and watch the recording
You can listen to and watch the recording the UMA explained webinar presented by Eve Maler and Paul Bryan from Kantara Initiative’s UMA WG. To benefit from the increasing number of services accessible over the Web, we’re forced to “hand over the data” — data that’s sensitive, valuable, and personal — and we end up paying a price in both privacy and convenience. The new User-Managed Access web protocol promises to help web users share their data more selectively using a central digital footprint dashboard, while helping websites get access to fresher and better-quality data when they need it. This session reviews UMA benefits, progress to date, and next steps.

Identity Matters: User Managed Access
In this episode of the Identity Matters Podcast, Eve Maler presents an overview of the User Managed Access (UMA) Work Group. Eve, the UMA WG chair, starts off with background of the group working within the Kantara Initiative and defines the problem space. She then provides an overview of the process the group is taking as well as where they are in their roadmap toward delivering a specification to the IETF.
From the UMA charter: The purpose of the UMA work at Kantara is to develop a set of draft specifications that enable an individual to control the authorization of data sharing and service access made between online services on the individual’s behalf, and to facilitate the development of interoperable implementations of these specifications by others.
