IT security and authentication platform company LaonSecure announced on the 23rd that it had won a contract for the 'Mobile Disabled Person Registration Card Construction' project commissioned by the Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation.
This project is a digital transformation project aimed at improving the accessibility and rights of the disabled in welfare services. LaonSecure plans to build a registration certificate issuance system using blockchain-based digital identity (ID) technology.
The existing plastic disabled person registration card has been criticized for various limitations, such as the inconvenience of carrying and presenting it, the psychological burden of being conscious of others' gaze when verifying identity, and the problem of fraudulent receipt due to forgery, alteration, and loss. Accordingly, the conversion of the disabled person registration card to mobile has been considered an urgent task in terms of universality and security.
In this project, Laonsecure will provide its digital ID platform 'Omni One Enterprise' and related security solutions. The platform has been applied to existing digital ID businesses such as mobile resident registration cards and driver's licenses, and is evaluated as a technology that has secured reliability and security through biometric authentication (FIDO), distributed server structure, and blockchain consensus algorithm. Another key feature is that it can selectively provide only necessary information while minimizing exposure of sensitive information by applying Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) technology.
When the mobile disability registration card is introduced, disabled people will be able to easily prove their identity and qualifications through mobile phones without a separate physical card. This is expected to increase the convenience of using welfare services and enable the use of various digital welfare infrastructures such as online-based qualification verification and discount services. At the same time, it is expected that the strengthening of technical security will also have the effect of preventing unauthorized use such as forgery, alteration, and theft by others.
Raonsecure CEO Lee Soon-hyung said, “This project is meaningful as a case study of how digital ID technology can contribute to improving the quality of life of the socially disadvantaged,” and added, “We will realize both technical reliability and social value in the field of digital identity authentication and credential verification.”
