4 years ago In healthcare, the issue has been actively discussed for almost 10 years. It shows up in Kantara UMA, the US API Task Force hearings, and the OpenID HEART workgroup. Healthcare is a good incubator because the trust issues are highly regulated so it's easier to do analyses of product-market fit.
What's new, in my opinion, is the realization in healthcare and every other domain that the days of the enterprise firewall security and privacy model are numbered. (We call that the lobster model: a hard shell with a soft and delicious inside once you're in.) The shift to zero-trust architecture is driven by smartphones and IoT devices that are no longer under the control of the enterprise and effectively outside the firewall.
The shift to zero-trust is the driver for SSI, self-sovereign agents and SDS. That's what the trust assumptions are about. See the NIST publication on zero-trust architecture for a start: https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/sp/800-207/final
