A Digital Identity Solution - An Identity for Everything

Digital identity solutions are tools and systems that enable individuals, organizations, and every ‘thing’ - computers, smartphones, internet-connected services (IoT), and applications, to establish and verify their identities online. These solutions enhance security, privacy, and convenience in various digital transactions and interactions. Digital identification, often known as "Digital ID," can be explicitly authenticated over a digital channel, allowing access to banking, government benefits, education, and a variety of other vital services.

Digital Identity for Humans

Digital identity for an individual is made up of information about a person that is available online, which corresponds to their digital persona as a physical person. This is very much in contrast to a physical identity which encompasses the attributes and characteristics that are associated with a person in the physical world. A physical identity includes tangible features such as a person's physical appearance, biometrics such as fingerprints and facial features, government-issued identification documents which include passports, and driver's licenses, and personal attributes such as name, date of birth, and address.

A digital identity refers to an individual's online or virtual identity. It consists of the digital representation of a person's identity and attributes in the digital realm. This includes information such as usernames, email addresses, social media profiles, digital certificates, and unique identifiers associated with online accounts or services. 
Digital identity is used to authenticate individuals and authorize their access to digital systems, online services, and platforms.

Digital Identity for IoT

A digital identity solution is an essential concept in the Internet of Things (IoT). It identifies devices, people, and other entities using digital means. In other terms, it is a method of uniquely identifying things in the digital realm.

Digital identity solutions for humans and the Internet of Things (IoT) differ in their design and application due to the unique characteristics and requirements of each context.

The field of digital identity is rapidly evolving with new technologies and approaches being developed to address the challenges of digital identity management. Therefore, the process of implementing and operating a trusted and worldwide operable digital identity solution may not be cost-effective, requires a high level of expertise, can be time-consuming and challenging to integrate, and puts strain on internal resources. 

A digital identification solution is a catalyst for digital transformation and can result in substantial business value. In addition to enhancing security and user experiences, it also assures regulatory compliance, increases operational efficiency, enables personalization, and opens up new possibilities for collaboration and revenue generation. Organizations that invest in a reliable and scalable digital identity solution are better positioned to prosper in the digital age.

Our solutions are characterized by the secure creation of unique digital identities, their definite identification and authentication as well as the authentication of users including long-term authenticity.
