What is Ver.iD?
Ver.iD, trade name of Subst.iD B.V., is a Software as a Service (SaaS) that enables developers to seamlessly integrate decentralized identity apps into their online platforms. Decentralized identity apps revolutionize online personal identity by enabling your customers to control their own data directly from their smartphones or inside their browser. These apps operate independently of centralized authorities or federated authorities, ensuring customers' privacy and security by design. By allowing individuals to manage and share their identity information selectively, decentralized identity apps empower customers with autonomy over their digital life and lies at the heart of our vision and mission.
Decentralized identity applications mark a fundamental change in how we handle online interactions, verify identities, and manage data. For online platforms, it reduces the burden of managing and securing large user databases or cumbersome onboarding procedures with real-life photocopies of fysical identity documents, thereby lowering the risk of data breaches and the associated financial and reputational costs. For customers, it simplifies the online experience, offering a streamlined way to prove their identity without the need to repeatedly submit sensitive information to multiple entities. This not only improves the user-experience but also significantly mitigates the risks of identity theft and fraud. Please go to our dedicated pages about authentication, onboarding or signing use-cases to learn more about the potential of using decentralized identity.
We are committed to fostering an ecosystem where privacy is not just an afterthought but a fundamental building block. Our platform is designed to be interoperable across various sectors and industries, from finance and healthcare to education and entertainment. Our platform is build from the ground up with the latest technologies, but heavily driven by compliance. This interoperability ensures that customers can leverage their decentralized identities in a multitude of contexts, breaking down the silos that currently fragment online experiences and services.
