- TYPE: Track START DATE: Thursday, May 16, 2019 START TIME: 14:30
Moderator(s):
Blockchain Technology is promising solution for digital identities, enterprise resource planning (ERP), supply chain management and more. Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) makes Self Sovereign Identities (SSIs) possible, where individuals can keep control of their digital identity and share it whenever they want with whoever they want. Furthermore, it can help large companies in having better transparency and security. Blockchain as a Service is already gaining some traction. Several SSI concepts as well as number of commercial products are being offered on the market already. It remains to be seen how scalability, governance questions and future privacy regulations affect wider adoption of DLT.
This session will present real applications of Blockchain technology, advances made in DLT changing identity management capabilities and highlight the existing challenges preventing wider adoption of this technology.
