We believe all serious privacy practices must first avoid collecting information unnecessarily. ReadySignOn uses cryptographic user identifiers to protect users from being tracked by websites or by identity providers.

ReadyID

This is a game-changing answer to the privacy needs of future websites and applications. It uses one-way cryptographic user identifiers to pseudonymously identify users at each relying party. ReadyID renders various user tracking and cross-site identity attacks ineffective by ensuring each identifier is unique to a specific site or application only , and cannot be correlated by anyone except the user himself.

Benefits of ReadyID authentication

  • The use of verifiable but unintelligible cryptographic identifiers by websites and applications for identifying and authenticating registered users.

  • A third party or a group of colluding parties cannot determine whether multiple account identifiers belong to the same person without cooperation from the account owner.

  • A user is able to prove ownership as well as relationships of identified accounts without having to reveal his permanent global ID or natural person identity.

  • A user is able to reveal his permanent global ID without also revealing accounts associated with that ID.

  • A service operator can have the ability to verify and attest the ownership of a given ID associated with that particular service but cannot verify or produce identifiers of the same user at other services.
