In an increasingly digital world, where people's lives increasingly rely on the Internet, digital identity becomes increasingly important. According to legal regulations, Internet applications need to confirm the true identity of users in order to provide various services, and users hope to protect their personal privacy as much as possible while performing identity authentication to prevent the risk of abuse or even theft of this private information. .
Under the traditional centralized identity authentication model, a large amount of users' sensitive data is stored in centralized servers of Internet applications. This centralized management method not only leaves users with little privacy, but is also very vulnerable to network attacks, leading to large-scale disasters. Large-scale information leakage. What's more, some Internet organizations themselves will participate in illegal reselling of user data, completely ignoring the damage that may cause to users' interests.
On the other hand, under this centralized mechanism, users have extremely limited control over their own data. After providing identity data, users cannot choose who can access these private data, nor can they track the flow of this data, making it difficult to effectively protect privacy and rights.
In addition, users often need to create different digital identities in different Internet applications. The continuous increase of digital identities not only increases the memory burden of users, but also makes the management of digital identities more cumbersome. How to manage multiple digital identities has gradually become a problem that troubles users.
In order to solve the above problems, a more secure, transparent and controllable network identity authentication system needs to be established to achieve reliable and convenient digital identity authentication while protecting user privacy.
Distributed technology represented by blockchain provides new technical solutions with its decentralization, encryption technology, transparency, openness, and non-tampering characteristics. The distributed identity authentication system established based on this can not only reliably verify digital identity , and can also effectively protect users’ personal privacy.
As a specific practice of the distributed identity authentication system, on December 12, the BSN real-name DID service was officially released. This service integrates the two major infrastructures of the blockchain service network BSN and CTID, and can authenticate individual users’ ID cards and names. , face and other identity information, a BSN official real-name DID (real-name DID) with real-name attributes is generated for the user.
As an underlying technology, the BSN real-name DID service has a very wide range of application scenarios. While helping individual users effectively protect the security of personal privacy data, it also helps business access institutions build a diversified digital identity service system and create a digital identity service system covering multiple fields. Scenario solution:
01
Personal data real-name verification
Online photo albums or picture websites can put "real-name watermarks" on user photos. Applications that provide online contract signing services can help users confirm the ownership and signature rights of contract PDF files. Certificate-issuing institutions such as universities and training institutions can provide graduation certificates, qualifications, etc. Provide proof of digital certification documents such as certificates to verify the authenticity of these documents and the issuing unit.
02
Encrypted transfer of personal data
During the process of signing contracts, sending emails, and transmitting electronic medical records online, end-to-end encryption of contracts, emails, medical records, and other documents can be performed to ensure that no third party can obtain the file content except the sender and recipient of the file. Includes the website that provides the service.
03
Personal privacy protection login
Users can complete registration, login, and use various services without providing identity information to Internet applications. It can achieve anonymity on the business side while meeting real-name management requirements. For example, in situations where personal privacy is deeply involved such as physical examination, the privacy of the entire physical examination process can be greatly improved through online anonymous registration, on-site identity verification by the physical examination institution, and the sending of encrypted physical examination reports.
In addition, solutions based on the BSN real-name DID service can also be widely used to realize interconnection between different metaverses, and to mutually authenticate the real identity of the same user between different financial institutions such as banks and securities, and Issuing personal identity information carriers to individual users and using them in situations where identity authentication is required, greatly improving user experience, protecting user privacy, and improving service efficiency.
There is no doubt that real-name distributed identity authentication is one of the important directions for the future development of online privacy identity and even the entire Internet. It will make people's actions on the Internet safer and more convenient, and will also pay more attention to personal privacy protection. With the continuous development and improvement of the real-name DID system, users will have greater control over their personal data. This transformation will reshape the way people interact with the digital world, including affecting the future development of the Internet at three levels. The second is the reform of registration and login methods; the second is the improvement of data rights, including data confirmation and the separation of ownership and use rights; the third is giving individuals more encryption methods to protect private data.
Looking forward to the future, distributed identity authentication will continue to develop rapidly. The BSN real-name DID service is also expected to become the technical base to support large-scale commercial applications of distributed identity, become a powerful tool to protect the security of users' personal privacy data, and promote the Internet to become more open and universal. development in a favorable direction.
We also look forward to more enterprises and institutions using the BSN real-name DID service, expanding the application scenarios of distributed identity authentication in more industries and fields, and achieving more innovations and breakthroughs driven by the dual wheels of technology and business.
