The opportunity: creating Canada's digital trust ecosystem
Our identity makes us who we are. As unique as a fingerprint, identity is key to every interaction both online and offline. But in the digital age, proving and protecting our identity is becoming harder and harder with the advent of more and more cyber crime. Businesses must prioritize safeguarding an individual's control over their personal information, while providing streamlined customer experiences in order to stay relevant in a competitive marketplace.
Identity verification rooted in security, trust, and convenience is the key to drive economic growth and innovation across Canada. The emergence of this technology will benefit everyone - citizens, businesses, & government alike.
Oliu's infographic "Trust & the Evolution of Digital Identity in Canada" dives into Canada’s current state of digital maturity at both the provincial and federal levels, and provides some staggering statistics to consider:
- Canadian privacy laws offer weaker protection than other leading countries, exposing the 32.1 million Canadians with paper-based IDs to increasing risk.
- 66% of Canadians believe it is important to have a secure and trusted digital identity to transact safely online.
- 8/10 Canadians support digital IDs.
At Oliu, we’re delivering an innovative digital trust solution, to empower individuals to own and control their own identities while enabling businesses to provide unparalleled convenience and efficiency online.
