As I've mentioned on recent Blue Box episodes, I recently got together with two other members of the Security Round Table, Michael Santarcangelo and Martin McKeay, to explore the issues around OpenID and security.
We have shared the resulting conversation as a SRT podcast, and have also published as the show notes the large body of links that we accumulated during our preparation for the show. I'd encourage you to check out the SRT site purely for the links alone, as I think we pulled together one of the more comprehensive lists of links I've seen related to OpenID. If you are not familiar with OpenID, the links in the SRT show notes will help you understand more about it. I've also written more about it over on my DisruptiveTelephony blog.
In the end, the three of us came aware quite impressed with the possibilities of OpenID with regard to the specific piece of the identity puzzle that it is aiming to solve. We hope this podcast helps people understand both the potential benefits as well as a few potential challenges with regard to security and OpenID. Comments and feedback are very definitely welcome.
