Summary

A new paradigm for Self Sovereign Identity with “Bring your Own” Know-Your-Customer (KYC) through self-credentialisation

History

Originally developed as part of a £385K grant project “Smart Me vs Smart Things”, funded by U.K. Government, this project was codenamed “Rumpel” and was developed into being a PDA Dashboard by Dataswift to enable individuals to view the content of their personal data server (in itself created through a £1.2m “Hub-of-all-things” HAT Microserver project) to enable access and control of their server connections with applications and websites.

Challenges

  • Launched an entirely new “bring-your-own” KYC model with partners
  • Enable any individual globally to self-credentialise, with government approval, and use those credentials across businesses, dramatically cutting costs and approval time
  • Provide an app-agnostic decentralised Universal Identity, with Credentials and Asset Ownership that ensure immutable integrity of assets and transactions
  • Enable credentials stored on individuals’ Personal Data Servers to render citizens the legal owners and sole purveyors of their own sensitive information

Solutions from this app

  • An open-source citizen app that will showcase self credentialisation and KYC for use by consumer apps (Dataswift)
  • A PDA Dashboard for Personal Data Servers (Dataswift)
