MyGeorgia Digital Identity

Executive Summary

The Georgia Technology Authority proudly submits MyGeorgia, Georgia’s enterprise digital identity and authentication platform, as a transformative model for secure, citizen-centered digital government.

MyGeorgia modernizes how citizens securely access state services by replacing fragmented, password-based
authentication systems with a unified digital identity platform built on biometric verification, privacy-first security principles, and modern cybersecurity architecture.

The platform enables citizens to access participating state services through a single trusted identity while significantly strengthening protections against identity fraud, phishing, credential theft, and unauthorized access

By combining advanced identity verification with a seamless user experience, Georgia reimagined digital
trust in government rather than incrementally improving legacy authentication systems.

The initiative strengthens cybersecurity resilience, improves operational efficiency, enhances public trust,
and establishes a scalable framework for future statewide digital transformation efforts.

MyGeorgia demonstrates how state government can responsibly leverage emerging technology to
modernize service delivery while creating a replicable national model for secure digital government.
