Mozilla lanza el sistema de autenticación Persona en Beta

Los sistemas de autenticación abiertos no son nada nuevo, porque OpenID existe desde 2005, y ahora existen infinidad de sitios que permiten autenticar con credenciales de Facebook, Twitter o Google+. De todas maneras, la fundación Mozilla desea crear algo distinto con el nuevo sistema Persona, que sería más simple y podría llegar a tener más aceptación. Con Persona no es necesario tener una cuenta en una red social que podría publicar tus quejas en un blog cualquiera como parte de tu historia. Es que el autenticador de Mozilla tampoco guarda un registro de los sitios que visitas, porque ha sido desarrollado para verificar la identidad y desaparecer después de eso. Checa el Beta aquí.

Mozilla Persona, the public face of the BrowserID initiative, is a fresh, dead simple, and compelling vision for how authentication should work on the web. Unfortunately, it’s also poorly executed and fundamentally flawed. If you are considering using BrowserID for authentication on your website, the following is my personal assessment on the shortcomings, flawed assumptions, and inherent weaknesses of the current implementation as well as the overall architecture that Mozilla has defined.

BrowserID is a step in the wrong direction

"The BrowserID web site answers questions about how to implement BrowserID, but punts on why an Identity Provider should implement and there is no mention on why a Relying Party will implement. Without appropriate financial incentives, there will be no widespread adoption. " ... BrowserID has been positioned as a web SSO solution, and the lack of native client support is an issue.

I want to add support for Mozilla’s Persona for discovery, but haven’t gotten around to it yet as the spec has been in flux and I’m not sure it currently supports the bits we’d need.
