COTI Joins Forces with Civic to Boost User Control Over Digital Identities

Confidentiality solutions implemented on the Ethereum blockchain, COTI partnered with the provider of Web3 identity management tools Civic to bolster data protection and privacy for Civic users. This partnership allows Civic to implement COTI V2’s confidentiality features, enhancing their Dynamic Decentralized Identity (DID) offerings.

COTI presents a compliant solution for guaranteeing data safety on the public blockchain, taking advantage of Ethereum’s robust security while employing the cryptographic method known as Garbled Circuits.

Thanks to the COTI V2 confidentiality features, data can be verified and processed without ever being decrypted throughout the workflow.

Employing Garbled Circuits, COTI V2 amplifies privacy, facilitating the operation of DID. This enables advanced functionalities like secure data sharing and complex computations.

COTI V2’s DIDs are linked with Civic’s Civic Pass, a verified credential that functions as a non-transferable token saved within the user's digital wallet. Civic Pass can also be utilized to meet regulatory standards like Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) protocols.

Additionally, Civic will integrate with COTI V2 through all phases of its development—including devnet, testnet, and mainnet—acting as a design partner.
