JumpCloud has joined the OpenID Foundation (OIDF) as a Sustaining Corporate Member.
This marks a definitive shift in the global identity landscape, said Joel Rennich, senior vice president of product management, JumpCloud. JumpCloud is now at the industry’s top table with key identity authorities. This shows its shift from a disruptive directory platform to a key player in global identity standards, he adds.
As a Sustaining Corporate Member, JumpCloud joins a tier of organizations responsible for the stewardship of the OpenID Connect (OIDC) protocol.
“Our membership in the OpenID Foundation isn’t just about supporting existing standards; it’s about helping to make sure the industry has a unified way forward as those standards are adopted for AI and other use cases,” said Rennich. “We very strongly believe that the answers to tomorrow’s identity challenges lie in the industry working together to ensure vendors, service providers, and users have a standards-based approach to identity management.”
