<p>Age assurance technologies are an important child safety tool. Their use will be
essential for supporting compliance with the draft Online Safety Bill’s higher protection
for children. It is important that these technologies are robust, effective, secure
and inclusive. This is needed to ensure children are appropriately protected online
and so that the public has trust in these solutions. DCMS is leading a detailed programme
of work on age assurance technologies. This includes working with the British Standards
Institute and the International Organization for Standardization to develop relevant
standards, including an international standard that will set consistent expectations
on key considerations including user privacy, confidence levels, security, and inclusion.</p>
