V-ID is a document validation and verification service that uses blockchain technology in order to make personal data ‘self-verifiable’, thereby removing the need for third-party verification services (e.g. examining digital copies for authenticity). Conceptually, it would work like this:
- Initial Validation
- File protection through a digital fingerprint
- Automation and re-use of validation
Re-use of validations make verifying documents faster, cheaper and automated through the use of APIs. An organisation can be both a validator (i.e. seller, when a client’s data has not been validated yet by another trusted organisation) and/or a verifier (i.e. buyer, when a client has already been validated by another trusted organisation).
