For us, it’s personal
Your identity is fundamental to participating in a modern society. With an identity theft occurring every 2 seconds and a fraud cost of over $2 Billion per year, control and ownership of your data is critical.
Theft is not the only identity challenge faced within society. Over 1 billion people globally do not have an official or provable identity due to war, homelessness and poverty. This creates barriers to access basic services, get a job, open a bank account and access education.
Our goal is to give everyone control of their identity and personal information. This reduces fraud, creates greater life opportunities and helps the vulnerable.
