The developer of KILT Protocol, BOTLabs GmbH, has now partnered with SpiderDAO for a project whose actual identities are Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs).
The joint force between the top-tier VPN router and a totally decentralized use-case holding and verifying user data makes for a formidable tool to privacy purposes as well as consumer protection. The integration is also set to fight identity theft while at the same time eliminate incidences of users losing control of their private data.
Reports also point to SpiderDAO’s development of a multi-layered governance structure built on Polkadot using both hardware and software tools. With this development, a one router one vote kind of structure is available. This makes it possible for users to verify their identity through MAC addresses and the router’s serial numbers as well as with the DID using the KILT protocol. The DID serves as an extra middleware platform with links to the hardware thereby making it hard to copy the identity and governance votes of a user.
In his report, SpiderDAO CEO Nathan Vary highlights his company’s delight in joining forces with BOTLabs GmbH in developing their very long roadmap. Adding to that, Nathan explained that it was their individual and combined expectation to be able to offer users with the best level of security in the entire industry while enhancing the safety of their online personal data via the KILT Protocol all in the bracket of the SpiderVPN routers.
Citing BOTLabs GmbH CEO and Founder of KILT Protocol Ingo Rübe, the collaboration with SpiderDAO was much welcomed because of their unique governance perspective as enabled by machine identity. Ingo lauded SpiderDAO’s potential in democratizing internet access stating their intention to play an enabling role. This is by using the tools of their flagship KILT Protocol to improve governance projects within the Polkadot ecosystem.
KILT, a decentralized blockchain protocol, enables the issuance of independent and anonymous verifiable credentials. The protocol also provides a means for representing individual users’ identities while preserving the integrity of private data. In so doing, the protocol borrows real-world verifiable credentials concepts like passport and driving license to the digital world while giving them privacy and data protection.
KILT has several use cases including machine identity for the creation of machine identifiers, related services and elements upon which identities can be built like routers. According to the reports, developers at SpiderDAO are set to collaborate with BOTLabs GmbH in enabling DIDs integration into their military-standard VPN routers’ firmware.
