What is EBSI, and why is it important 🇪🇺
EBSI is a blockchain-based infrastructure supported by the European Commission. It is designed to provide a reliable way for European businesses and citizens to prove their identity online while protecting their data and privacy.
EBSI leverages verifiable credentials (VCs), a new data format that is owned by the users, tamper-proof, and instantly verifiable. Verifiable Credentials can be used to prove a wide range of things, such as identity, age, education credentials, employment status and more!
What you can do with the TALAO Wallet 📲
TALAO is EBSI-conformant, which means it can be used to store, manage, and share verifiable data supported by the European Blockchain Services Infrastructure.
TALAO can be used to manage verifiable data for a wide range of use cases, including :
- Identity verification
- Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance
- Education or professional credentials verification
- Age proving
