State CIOs Need an Enterprise Identity Strategy

The National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO) discusses how fragmented identity systems in state government reduce usability and can mask fraud across agencies. A unified identity strategy can strengthen trust, safeguard privacy, and prepare infrastructure for emerging technologies including digital wallets, deepfakes, and artificial intelligence (AI) agents.

Why it matters: State CIOs and government IT leaders need identity consolidation to reduce operational friction, detect cross-agency fraud, and prepare for identity threats from deepfakes and AI, which are shifting attack surfaces today.
