iTrue FAQ — A Blockchain for Your Everyday Internet

What is iTrue?

iTrue is a Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) solution that features a built-in authentication system with biometrics as its core microservice.

What main features does iTrue offer?

As a platform, iTrue provides an ecosystem wherein businesses and developers can authenticate their users, build their own blockchain network, and earn tokens from data exchange. Users can use the platform to conveniently and securely get authenticated, control how their data is used, and earn by sharing their personal data in a controlled manner.

  1. Unprecedented Privacy Control
    Biometric access means never having to memorize a password again, and never having to rely on a gadget like a smartphone or credit card. iTrue gives users full control and ownership of their data, which also enables businesses to build solutions and apps that comply with privacy regulations like GDPR.
  2. Opportunities to Build and Scale
    The iTrue Blockchain-as-a-Service provides building blocks that enable developers to more quickly design and deploy enterprise or consumer applications with turing completeness. This enables businesses to gain access to both turnkey solutions and developer-customized applications. iTrue’s new Stone Storage technology ensures speed, security, and accessibility by combining the benefits of blockchain and database.
  3. Income and Rewards from Data Sharing Economy
    iTrue is built around the ITU token economy, wherein users, businesses, developers, and data managers can earn income and rewards from secure and private sharing of information. To ensure privacy, all data sharing will still require user permission and notification.

What problems will iTrue solve?

iTrue addresses the growing demand for safe, efficient, and secure authentication systems, which is brought about by the rise of online financial products and innovative digital services like cashless payment systems.

Banks and fintechs are already exploring or implementing biometrics as a way to authenticate users and to reduce the risk of security breaches. Biometric technologies, however, do not give an assurance of secure and safe authentication on their own.

User data can easily be compromised or misused with improper handling. Users are thus concerned about how businesses are potentially collecting, using and profiting from their personal data.

Meanwhile, enterprises need a solution to de-risk their handling of data. Considering that storing data on-premises or on insecure centralized locations, any breach thereof can be detrimental to a business’ image.

iTrue, therefore, aims to address the following needs:

  • A convenient and secure way for users to get authenticated;
  • Enhanced user privacy, in line with regulations like the GDPR;
  • A way for both businesses and users to benefit from exchange of data;
  • A way for businesses to build their own blockchain networks with built-in security, privacy, and speedy performance.

What are its competitors and comparative advantages?

Our main focus is to make the best product and to accomplish our mission of empowering each individual to have control over their personal data, how it is used, and how to profit from it. Thus, we believe it is not in good taste to comment on other projects unless absolutely necessary.

Why is blockchain technology used in iTrue?

Blockchain provides a trustless, digital and decentralized method of generating cryptographically secure records, which also preserves the anonymity of its users and protects them from data theft.

Our technology goes beyond blockchain, however. Through a combination of blockchain and database technologies, users and businesses are assured of a robust and scalable infrastructure wherein their records are secure and safe from data theft or misappropriation. Our solution is designed for high speed and capacity, overcoming the limitations of current blockchain tech.
