In 2024, PNG successfully ran a pilot of the SevisPass digital identity, which aims to help citizens access public and private sector services more easily and securely. Now, according to Secretary for the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) Steven Matainaho, the national integration process will involve mapping out sources of personal data, establishing secure and consent-based data sharing protocols, technical onboarding various agencies and connecting them through secure systems, ensuring data structures and formats align with the anticipated Digital ID Trust Framework, and testing for compliance, security and interoperability.
