Speaking at Blockchain Summit India

Kaliya Young · February 21, 2019 ·

I am in India as a New America India-US Public Interest Technology Fellow. My topic of study is Aadhaar the country’s national digital Identity system.
This Friday I am speaking at the Blockchain India Summit on a panel:
Aadhaar on Blockchain, a potential solution for continued innovation

The rapid march of Aadhaar came to a sudden halt with its declaration on acting unconstitutionally and violating fundamental Indian rights! This also halted new ways of innovation happening in FinTech. Is it time to redesign Aadhaar while ensuring the data ownership resides with the citizen and yet safe, secure and effective.

It will be a bit of a challenge to explain/get across the new decentralized Identity and Self-Sovereign Identity tech without any slides and what will likely be one question. For those coming to find this site after hearing me talk here are some good resources.

Identity is Changing: The Rise of Self-Sovereign Identity Infrastructure using Blockchain

Kaliya Young · May 3, 2018 ·

I gave a presentation, “Identity is Changing: The Rise of Self-Sovereign Identity Infrastructure using Blockchain,” at InteroplTX on May 2, 2018.

Identity is Changing at InteroplTX

Identity can seem deceptively simple. We know who we are. Sometimes we have to convince others of that fact and confirm other characteristics: our age, our qualifications, or our right to access some services or tools. This happens every day over the Internet, but in ways that are disorganized, redundant, and risky. The lack of reliable, universal standards puts our private information at risk of public dissemination, fraud or worse.

A new set of standards is emerging that creates an infrastructure for self-sovereign identity that can scale. This talk looks forward to help you think ahead and prepare for this new infrastructure. We will walk through standards that together create a new identity infrastructure that leverages the blockchain. This isn’t about what you can implement tomorrow to solve your employee identity challenges or manage customer accounts. It will instead prepare you for the coming changes and help you play a role in shaping them.
