Digital Wallets put the holder in control of their digital assets (e.g., identity information, financial instruments, other tokenized assets) and can provide a means to verify holder identity claims. Unless they are implemented carefully, they can open new vulnerabilities, or "back-doors" for undesirable surveillance, profiling, fraud, and the active correlation of users.
Members of the Open Wallet Foundation (OWF) created a guide and an accompanying scoring template to provide a way for analysts to create simple and easy-to-understand comparisons of the safety features of different digital wallets that can be appreciated by non-experts.
Juliana and Dan will present the key elements of the OWF Safe Wallet Guide in this session.
