STATE OF ILLINOIS ANNOUNCES DIGITAL ID PROGRAM FOR BUSINESSES AND INDIVIDUALS DOING BUSINESS WITH THE STATE
(February 9, 2001) According to a notice received by our office, Governor George H. Ryan has announced that the State of Illinois will be issuing over one million digital identifications (digital IDs) over the next 18 months, to individuals and businesses wishing to electronically transact business with the state. According to Governor Ryan, the State has selected Entrust Technologies to supply the Public Key Infrastructure-based technology, which will secure electronic transactions conducted among state agencies, individuals, and companies. This technology is increasingly being used to ensure secure communications of confidential information and data across the Internet. We will advise of further details, as they become known. We have been in contact with Entrust representatives, who will keep us posted.
As always, please contact us if you have further questions.
