Technology for Verifiable Digital Credentials

Our client, an identity and authentication provider based in Canada, has been in the business of creating BankID services. However, they faced a significant challenge in the Canadian authentication landscape – the absence of independently verifiable and rapidly cryptographically verified solutions. This gap highlighted the necessity for portable, secure digital credential solutions that align with industry standards.

Recognizing this need, our client embarked on a mission to address the issue and offer users a more convenient means of managing their digital identities. To accomplish this, they engaged a team of skilled Euristiq engineers.

Digital identity platform that uses the approach of self-sovereign identity

The platform solves the problem of authentication without involving the centralized or federated system. It is compliant with World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards that can be used for secure digital credentials solutions.

Solution based on Blockchain that provides decentralized interoperability

Personal data that users share with apps, devices, and services can become the subject of breaches and privacy loss. Decentralized identity is the answer to these problems. It can provide greater privacy and control over personal data.

Blockchain technology was used to enable decentralization. It supports decentralized public key infrastructure for verifiable digital credentials that users exchange to provide proof of identity. Blockchain was used as one of the options for Verifiable Data Registry.

Production-ready secure platform that ensures digital credentials validity

The technology for verifiable digital credentials gives end-users more control over access to their personal information. It simplifies issuing and verifying digital credentials for organizations, streamlines digital identity workflows, reduces human error, and increases efficiency.

AWS enabled the HUB service to run securely and efficiently in the cloud, ensuring compliance with Canadian Government security policies like SOC 2 Type 1 and Protected B data residency. Using AWS services like IAM, EKS, and RDS, the platform reduces operational overhead, improves performance, and protects user privacy by never storing authentication credentials.
