WISeKey discussed how identities Avatars will allow us to
navigate the metaverse using its WISeID technology delegating our
presence on the Metaverse to authenticated versions of ourselves
created via machine learning that would navigate and do all sorts
of transactions on our behalf.
WISeID first generation acted as a trusted identity service that
enables access to the web and mobile applications with strong
authentication techniques. WISeID supports online KYC onboarding,
OTP and digital certificate login, and an innovative “hands-free”
secure login based on QR-Codes which users can read using the
WISeID suite of mobile applications without even having to type any
passwords.
Additional security services include digital signature services
for documents. WISeID implements standards such as OpenID Connect
and OAUTH2, that can be easily integrated by customers to enhance
the security of their cloud applications. WISeID can also be
combined with Microsoft Active Directory, facilitating integration
with corporate applications.
The WISeID second generation Digital Identities in Metaverse
includes an identification module that its built into the protocol,
while supplementary applications will be developed. Users will have
autonomy over their identity meaning that they are in full control
of their personal identification information and hence need not to
rely on any central entity or third party for identity
verification. With a truly NFT identity, users can create, sign and
verify claims, while parties who interact with a user will be able
to prove their identity. Additionally, users will be able to
selectively disclose their information.
Users can establish a reputation on Metaverse through digital
identities, improving the way we exchange value. Value is exchanged
through digital signatures, requests for verification and
transactions; these transactions then allow a user to gradually
build a reputation which can be inspected and verified by other
digital identities and value intermediaries. You can download your
ID from WISeID.com.
