WISeKey brings blockchain to cybersecurity with WISeID

WISeKey International Holding Ltd, a leading cybersecurity company, has released WISeID – a special edition of the Digital Identification and cyber-resilience app that integrates blockchain technology.

“WISeKey’s WISeID offers a secured storage to protect personally identifiable information (PII)”, the website reads. “The personal data that you save in WISeID always stays under your control, is encrypted with strong keys derived from a password that you choose and only you know, and is never communicated to third parties.”

WISeID serves as a two-factor authentication technology that sits on top of a blockchain. The WISeID BlockChain is constantly growing as new blocks are added to it with a new set of recordings. Upon joining the WISeID network, each WISeID node gets a copy of the WISeID BlockChain and gets downloaded automatically. For the full article click here
