Be it between people, be it between people and companies — to happen successfully: for users to be willing to share data, for organizations to use that data, so that the bureaucracy can be reduced and everything happen with more fluidity and dynamism. With all this, more complex and interesting relationships for both sides can be created.
At World Identity, we believe that digital identity is driven by what shapes digital interactions: trust, agility, security, and user-centrism. In order for this to effectively become a reality, the development of digital identity solutions has an important role to play.
That’s why we propose a digital identity model that has transparency, trust, and inclusion as its basis. We believe digital identity solutions must always:
And how do digital interactions happen in this new concept of identity? They should focus on privacy and security, based on intelligence and effectiveness. Such interactions, then, are only possible when there is an understanding that the user must be at the center of them; with a digital identity, individuals can control and choose the interactions they want to have with companies and institutions.
It is not possible to build a digital identity in our proposed model without the explicit understanding, trust and engagement of the user. Therefore, the implementation of the concepts of Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default, for example, becomes essential.
Following Privacy by Design, the concern with data security must be present from the first step in the development of the solution. It cannot be seen as an afterthought, as a complement, as an additional resource; it is something fundamental without which the solution cannot work. The privacy of personal data must not come after the requirements of technology or functionality, but must be truly intrinsic to the product.
In the meantime, in understanding Privacy by default, you must configure the settings that best preserve users' privacy by default. If they choose to share a larger volume of data than is strictly fundamental, they have the option to change it - all with clarity and transparency, so that people can clearly understand what they are modifying and agreeing to.
In addition, the digital identity must be simple, intelligent and secure:
We are working to make this goal a reality. Do you also want to be part of this worldwide change? So it is essential to implement the most innovative measures of security and privacy of personal data in the treatment of information. Thus, it is possible to build solid digital relationships based on trust, while also ensuring compliance with personal data protection legislation.
At World Identity, we believe that digital identity solutions affect us all - people and companies - and are a fundamental part of the future we are traveling to.
