  • iOS 15 Code Points to Biometric Onboarding for Apples Mobile ID 2021-07-30 FindBiometrics

    The iPhones incoming mobile ID feature will use selfie biometrics for identity verification, suggests code uncovered by 9to5Mac. The news indicates that Apple will be even more directly in competition […] The post iOS 15 Code Points to Biometric Onboarding for Apples Mobile ID appeared first on FindBiometrics.

Amazon

Amazon customers will first need to register their palm(s) using a scanner at the store. They will then be able to link a debit or a credit card to that palm print, which will in turn allow them to pay for their purchases with only a palm recognition scan the next time they pass through checkout.

  • Introducing Veramo

    In our last post we briefly presented Veramo and how it evolved from the challenges faced with uPorts libraries. In this next series of articles we will give Veramo a proper introduction and answer some of the basics: why it exists and what it does, followed by articles describing the architecture in more detail, and how to build applications using Veramo.

Indicio

  • Anonyome Labs Joins the Indicio MainNet 2021-05-26 Anonyome

    Here, we go through how we went about standing up our Indico node. In brief:

    • The Indicio MainNet is an enterprise-grade ledger for use by decentralized identity applications.
    • We brought up the node using AWS Elastic Cloud Computing (EC2) instances within a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).
    • We pulled the validator algorithms from the open-source project, Hyperledger Indy.
    • A supporting machine operates the command line interface used to perform steward operations onthe ledger.
    • We used security groups at the network interface level to create a firewall.
    • We set up monitoring in AWS CloudWatch using a variety of bash scripting in conjunction with Ubuntu and AWS provided utilities.
    • We created a regular maintenance schedule.

SpruceID

  • DIDKit v0.1 is Live. 2021-01-28

    Most other options are subtly locked to a specific blockchain and its particularities, which a self-sovereign identity (SSI) novice is unlikely to notice until months into a project based on it. A few open-source libraries exist to sidestep this infrastructural lock-in, but these are more like primitives for assembling an SSI toolkit than ready-to-go, developer-friendly libraries. DIDKit, on the other hand, is ready to start processing real-world VCs with non-repudiable signatures right out the box.

RIF Identity

  • A back-end authenticating users by their wallet addressed - their Decentralized Identifiers.
  • A registration model capable of requesting users for data stored in its user-centric cloud storage, the Data Vault.
  • A front-end capable of interacting with any wallet that the user chooses, with a pre-designed user experience for registration and login.
  • Compatibility with a unified platform where the user can control their identity and information, the RIF Identity Manager.
  • Roadmap to Institutional Adoption of DeFi RSK - Coinfirm

    The most recent FATF updated draft guidance from March 2021 introduces significant changes to the legal definition of DeFi platforms, expanding the types of entities that fall under FATF's umbrella. In this guidance, FATF defines most operators of decentralized finance platforms as “Virtual Asset Service Providers” that have AML/CFT obligations.

All compatible with existent protocols and fully integrated into @RSKsmart blockchain. The future is one step closer.

When “leased out”, the other party can access your personal data — in this manner, the NFMe ID acts as an “authorization key” that allows third parties to use your data in a fair way to generate a shared value between the third party and the owner of the data.

Digime

Julian describes digi.mes mission of empowering people with their personal data, as individuals know where all their data is, while they also have “a right for that data”. By having that knowledge and ownership, only individuals have “unlimited usage rights” to unlock the potential data has to be a force for good.

Key findings from the report are:

  • Users sacrifice privacy and security for access to valued services
  • Smartphone users begin to sense improvement in the mobile environment
  • More and more users take protective steps, but remain exposed to harm
  • Protective actions do not necessarily drive confidence
  • Cost, knowledge and perceived complexity are key barriers
  • Transparency and control are key values for users

 Entrustient

"When building product-market-fit for our platform, we listened constantly to frustrated customers who embraced the concept of SSI, Verifiable Credentials and Blockchains, but who gave up on piecemealing a solution. And the reasons were mostly due to the lack of specialized SSI developers, implementing complex SDK's and code builds, and trying to provision onto blockchain networks,"

Swisscom

This isnt Swisscom Blockchains first identity partnership. It also has a relationship with Adresta, which developed a digital identity solution for watches.

Merit

The company spent the last five years working with various governments to build connectors to these licensing databases to allow third parties to access the data and have it update automatically. So if you are a plumbing company, you can display your employees plumbing credentials on the company website and have them update automatically when the license is renewed (or show that it wasnt).

Fujisu

As for the near future, Fujitsu envisions enhancing the distributed identity, data privacy, and consent management platform, which would open up all of the benefits described in this article on an as-a-Service basis to any player.

To resolve the complications, Fujitsu says it collaborated with the Keio Research Institute at SFC on a digital identity technology in September 2021, which resulted in an identity conversion gateway that enables multiple identity infrastructures to be interconnected without using a unified protocol.

Civic

Now, were making Civic Pass available to developers everywhere. The idea is that developers can plug Civic Pass into their platform and create an identity layer that allows for a permissioned dApp platform, be it a DEX, an NFT marketplace or mint, a metaverse, or who knows what else youll come up with.

Self-sovereign objects are are self-executing and self-owning; capable of determining their own lifecycle to maximise material utility and performance whilst minimizing negative environmental impacts. Augmented by sensing capabilities and the ability to autonomously execute smart contracts, material objects could continuously monitor their own performance and contract for their maintenance, repair or recycling.

    The ShareRing platform, built on Tendermint, will allow users to book, register, and pay for Viators 395,000 global activities and experiences, using local fiat currencies or major crypto assets, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and its native SharePay token (SHRP).

    The platform uses the ShareRing ID system to ensure that sensitive personal and financial information is securely handled, and has contact tracing features to help with tourism safety during the pandemic.

  • ShareRing Unites with Chinas International Blockchain-based Service Network (BSN)

    BSN aggregates their technology partners services into their cloud-based ecosystem to make them all accessible to any company or developer that wishes to use them, with very low monthly access fees starting at just $20. Their “plug and play” approach eliminates the need for hiring or outsourcing highly specialized developers, who are in short supply due to high demand in this industry.

    One of the most exciting benefits of ShareRings integration with BSNs global ecosystem is how effortless it will be for companies to incorporate our products and services without requiring ShareRings assistance with development and integration.

Publish

PUBLISH CEO Sonny Kwon gave an overview of a press ID app PUBLISH is building in collaboration with the Journalists Association of Korea (JAK). He explained that the mobile application, which leverages decentralized identity (DID) technology to manage press credentials, would help the JAK combat misinformation and reduce administrative costs associated with its current press credentialing process.

PUBLISHiD users will further be able to assemble collections of verifiable credentials from one or more issuers into a single verifiable presentation. Other features include DAuth-based authentication, single-sign on (SSO), and an agent ID service capable of handling the management of and security between credential issuers and verifiers.
