Personal Identity for the People
It’s Your Identity, Own It
Personal identity, also called self-sovereign identity, creates a new way for you to securely share information about yourself without disclosing more than necessary. Sharing information with a service provider is faster and easier, and organizations don’t have to worry about obtaining a separate consent and storing or managing unneeded sensitive information. Service providers can also securely share validated claims with you to make your life easier. Examples are proof of employment, proof of education, proof of vaccination and much more. You can then conveniently share this information with others and they can instantly validate the authenticity of your claims.
Prove It's You
It all starts by proving that it’s actually you. ShoCard verifies that it’s you through the use of advanced, patented facial recognition technology along with the ability to check the authenticity of documents such as a driver’s license or a passport. Your identity only needs to be verified once, and each following digital interaction is fast, trusted, seamless and secure.
Login with Me
With ShoCard, it’s never been easier to log in and access services with your identity. ShoCard uses facial recognition and an easy-to-use app on your mobile device to authenticate without usernames and passwords. It’s simple and secure and makes unauthorized reuse of your identity nearly impossible.
Your Digital Identity Wallet
With ShoCard, you’ll have an identity wallet to store verified documents and claims such as a driver's license, school transcripts, proof of employment and an unlimited range of other use cases. Individual details from your identity wallet can be selected and shared to apply for a job, open a bank account, share proof of age and more.
Easy-to-manage Privacy
ShoCard puts you in control of your personal information while making it easy to share that information in a private, secure manner. You decide what, where and with whom to share your personal data, and can share only the details necessary to conduct a transaction or establish trust with others.
Identity You Control from Cradle to Grave
Today, consumers leave their identity bread crumbs everywhere, increasing their vulnerability to identity theft and fraud. Countless copies of your personal information are scattered in accounts across the digital landscape. Copies of physical documents and personal information are also held by employers, financial institutions and others. ShoCard changes the model completely. Now you control your identity information from beginning to end, keeping you more secure.
Security and Trust Using Blockchain
Your identity data is only stored on your device, and is only unlocked by you. ShoCard uses secure blockchain technology as a public, immutable ledger that allows third parties to validate that the original data or certification has not been changed or misrepresented. Data stored on the blockchain cannot be modified or deleted. Your personally identifiable information (PII) is never stored outside of your control.
The Future Is Closer Than You Think
Personal identity is here, and the investments you’ve made with Ping Identity will support tomorrow’s personal identity models. This includes interoperability with the Ping Intelligent Identity platform and support for modern identity standards that are already in use today.
