Overview  

Supporting Decentralized Data Controls with Identity Governance for Data subject’s (data) rights. This task force mission is to enhance identity and data governance interoperability  with standardized notice of Control and accountability for processing personal data (with the  ToiP layered governance model.)

The key challenge this initial specification is aimed to address is systemic  (and broadcasted) transparency over the control controller of personal information, so that data controls can be used automatically to enable dynamic data controlscontrol. 

Unlike in physical world, the processors of your personal data are invisible. This is why the identity of the data controller is required in all legal privacy frameworks and is the most common and Similar similar legal component for processing personal data.  This makes the notice of control idea an ideal focus for a standard for ToiP governance interoperability. 

Online, there can be many processors, personal identifiers can be shared and aggregated without any transparency, personal data may continuously be processed and people are completely unaware and at risk of this surveillance.  This is why the promise of SSI is so attractive and why profiling and aggregation using identifiers is specifically called out in privacy legislation as  high risk to privacy and in which processing is required to be more (proportionally transparent).  What's more, even the Controller, might contain multiple legal entities. This challenges identity management technologies for privacy compliance and human trust. 

To address a key part of this challenge a specification for listing the Control Provenance, focusing on the legal entities and accountable people in control of processing personal data is a first step as the  first spec to providing the needed tranpsarency transparency (or Notice) for the control of processing, required for trustworthy processing. 

This specification provides specification will provide a  nested nested schema to record a privacy controller credential for open controllertransparency over the control of processing.  This privacy controller credential is intended to use a stack of standards and specifications to provide a standard set of identity control semantics, that can then be used by in notice and notification by people to control personal data directly to provide Privacy assurance. 

Decentralized Semantic Governance Stack

The Identity and Data Governance semantic based line is the international ISO/IEC 29100 security and privacy techniques framework, this is mapped to Legal jurisdiction notice schema and the differnces and risks (in terms of rights and the performance of data controls) is provided as a component of the notice of control.

The risks are used to provided a progressive framework for people to self-mitigate the risks and themselves drive the development of dynamic digital identity governance interoperability.  Translating a local governance schema to the internationalized schema base for governance controls and privacy rights comparison.  Then, to overly overlay the next schema for localized identity and data governance controls, which utilized the same surveillance and privacy semantic governance framework in order to indicate the level of  data governance interoperability. 

In this process the OCA utilizes this  stack of standards and specifications to syncratically harmonize data portability and control with purpose driven interoperability for data and identity governance.  This  

This is accomplished with the standard for specifying a purpose for notice and consent.

   3. ISO/IEC 27560 Consent Record Structure
   4. Kantara Advanced  Notice & Consent Receipt specifications for 
      1. Decentralized Proof of Notice for orgs 
      2. Decentralized Proof of Processing (aka consent) for people
2. W3C  Data Control Vocabulary ( maps  legal semantics to ontology) to harmonize decentralized legal semantics with machine readable semantics for linking identifiers and personal data. 
3.  OCA Specification for Operational Semantic Notice 
   1. conformity assessment vectors for OCA schema's 
      1. legal schema overlay from localized privacy law schema 
      2. legal schema conformity assessment to ISO baseline 
      3. legal schema overlay conformity assessment to a privacy law schema 
      4. conformity assessment report on legal adequacy for privacy rigxzhts and associated infrormation controls

Background of this Stack

1. A key challenge to interoperability is addressed with the International ISO/IEC standards framework 29100 and 29184. This provides a semantic control framework to address the lack of semantic harmonization for personal data control  which provides security for the portability and control of private information and is a required for people to be able to independently consent and control personal information.  This challenge first presented the W3C DoNotTrack Conference in Berkeley California. 'Opening Up the Online Infrastructure' . 
2.  This turned into a Kantara Specification effort in 2014 and now, last year, ISO voted to fast track this to a standard 27560, to be used with ISO 29184 to address what was know by the  phrased of the Biggest Lie on the Internet, was a focus of a movie Terms and Condition's May Apply. With an international governance rule set, people can use independently of Terms and Conditions. 
3. With the success of this work as an international standard this Task Force aims to collaborate to support an International data governance authority framework as an open resource for master identity control transparency over personal information (with standardized notification for the PII Principle)

 Privacy Controller Receipt Credential (Control Provenance Credential) 

This credential is essential for generating digital notice and consent, it contains the legal entity name, which is bound as a credential by the accountable person as defined by their role in the organization.

The challenges:

1. The accountable person may or may not be an employee of the organization 
2. different jurisdictions call name/define and reference this role differently 
3. some jurisdictions, like the UK have a data controller registry, where this binding is public and legally required
4. some jurisdictions, like the EU require a an accountable data controller representative to be accountable in the jurisdiction they are operating in, to address data privacy and security issues that may arise. 
5. 2 or more Controllers might be accountable for processing of personal data
6. The privacy law in some jurisdictions, can itself break privacy law in other jurisdictions by requiring the accountable person information to be published publicly, 

The proposed solution: 

Develop this controller credential specification with a set of rules for the use, maintenance, and lifecycle of a privacy controller credential. 

To illustrate: 

A record format to capture the bound controller information, which can be used to present a notice of control according to context, and a notice of what who the accountable person is according to purpose of credential use.

Details for Risk and Liability Management 

• Providence Provenance  of control starts with the person who is accountable and bound to a legal entity (who is liable).
