HR
Much of the early innovation with Liberty standards took place inside organizations, as focus was placed upon utilizing these new specifications to implement solutions that saved money and increased productivity inside of the firewall. HR departments recognized the advantages to the security and privacy of Liberty-based deployments, and encouraged their IT departments to implement solutions. HR discussions continue in the public HR-EDU Special Interest Group as well.
