Melbourne’s sharing has been used as the leading digital identity provider to start testing its technology for Australian government verification technology trials of $ 4 million approved at the end of last year to apply social media restrictions for minor users.
The Blockchain company will launch a pilot program with school students in Darwin, testing its self-televised identity platform which allows users to provide age-securely and safe verification of their personal data.
The trials should start next week while Australia seeks to implement new legislation by December, prohibiting children under the age of 16 from creating social media accounts, with platforms faced with fines of up to $ 30.7 million for non-compliance.
The use by Sharering of reusable digital IDs helps respond to the confidentiality problems of Australians who have expressed themselves against the risk of identity theft in the databases managed by the government. These concerns have existed since last year when the legislation was approved for the trial.
The technology “eliminates the need for repetitive verification while maintaining an instant verification without confidence and an approach first in terms of confidentiality,” said Tim Bos, founder of Sharering and director of technology, said Decipher.
Unlike conventional centralized identity systems, technology based on Sharering Blockchain helps delete unique failure or risk violation of potential data if a single entity, such as a government, has data control.
It allows users to check their age without downloading personal documents, to share only cryptographic proof, to keep data in user control and to reduce exposure to violations of infamous and potential pirates.
Built on the SDK Cosmos, Sharing technology provides a way to create personalized blockchains, in this case, for use to help detect age content on social media platforms by checking users, without necessarily exposing their personal information.
By using the trend, a consensus mechanism for proof of bet, sharing can treat inscriptions efficiently while allowing it to connect to other blockchains.
The company says that it has obtained accreditation under digital identities and attribute the UK trust and joined Select ID, the first reusable digital identification network of the United Kingdom for financial services.
Australia tests are led by the age control certification scheme (ACCS), an independent evaluation consortium. ACCs will check the age verification technologies before social networks restrictions take full effect in the year.
