Episode 72: Gemalto, Microsoft working on securing online IDs

Securing online identities is a hot topic. Gemalto and Microsoft Corp. have partnered to bring a product to market combing smart cards with cryptography to enhance privacy and trust. Gemalto's James McLaughlin discusses the partnership with Microsoft and how it may change the way people identify themselves online. "It allows a person a way to present the claims about themselves to someone else or something else, a service for instance, and do that in a way that's secure and allows them to control how much information is sent to that service or to that person," McLaughlin says.
