The Bridge ID platform will transform how you manage and protect your digital identity

Before I joined the Bridge Protocol team, I was heavily focused on digital asset management and e-commerce solutions leveraging blockchain technology. In pursuing these avenues, I quickly noticed that one area of concern was not only the representation of the asset, but also the representation of the individual. Just like in the real world when dealing with assets and verification, identity and trust is the foundation that all transactions and ownership are built on.

With this in mind, it has helped us develop a platform that will build a truly unique system of creating, managing, and verifying digital identity for individuals on the blockchain that is unlike any concept to date. We believe that digital identity is applicable to everyone in the new economy, and with that comes the responsibility to ensure that the identity and personal data of every individual is protected while still providing robust utility and regulatory compliance.

The Bridge ID platform is designed to be a public API that will enable the development of robust identity driven solutions. The platform will be available to any application developer to enable them to build apps and system integrations that will take full advantage of the platform to create, manage, and verify digital identity on the blockchain. With nothing more than an address on the blockchain, users will be able to manage their digital identities and provide proof of eligibility anonymously in situations where today they would be obligated to provide sensitive information that could lead to identity theft and other malicious behavior by bad actors.

The Bridge team is working around the clock to ensure that we are building the next evolution of online identity that will address current issues such as: GDPR compliance, KYC compliance for ICO’s and financial exchanges, and all of the other inevitable regulations coming our way in response to the recent violations in privacy and data security.

Stay tuned — I am confident Bridge Protocol is going to change the way you create, manage, and think about your digital identity.
