The experience and method behind Fiduciary Commons

The work reflects direct experience with public law, privacy, identity, cybersecurity, procurement, and government technology.

Fiduciary Commons was developed by Michael G. Leahy, an attorney and former Secretary of Information Technology and State Chief Information Officer for Maryland.

The framework developed through a documented sequence of jurisprudential inquiry, legislative drafting, architecture design, adversarial testing, and controlled revision. Its antecedents include 2023 and 2024 work on Utility, Security, Autonomy, verifiable government, and No Phone Home, followed by the formal Fiduciary Commons architecture and Version 2.2 documentary state.
