What's an Identity Wallet?
An identity wallet is a cutting-edge digital tool that securely stores and manages your personal identification information. It streamlines the process of verifying your identity online, making transactions safer and more efficient. With reusable identity credentials, you control who accesses your information, reducing the risk of identity theft and fraud.
The aim is to make it harder for fraudsters and easier for citizens. Why? Because many cases of identity fraud could have been prevented if individuals and businesses were equipped with the right knowledge and secure solutions, like avoiding the use of paper documents. That’s why it’s our mission to empower you with both knowledge and tools.

The Secure Citizen ID wallet offers advanced security features, but no system is entirely foolproof. Here's what you need to know:
Security Features:
- Tamper-proof: Any changes to verifiable credentials (VCs) are detectable.
- Verifiable: Issuers are authenticated.
- User Control: You control what information to share.
Potential Vulnerabilities:
- Wallet Compromise: Hackers could access your wallet through malware or phishing.
- Social Engineering: Fraudsters might trick you into revealing information.
- Lost Device: Losing your device could expose your credentials if not secured.
Enhancing Security:
- Use strong, unique passwords and enable multi-factor authentication (MFA).
- Only share necessary information.
- Choose a reputable VC wallet provider.
- Regularly update your wallet app and stay informed about threats.
Overall, the Secure Citizen ID wallet offers robust security, but good security practices are essential to minimise risks.
If a digital wallet is lost or stolen, Secure Citizen implements several protective measures to safeguard the user's credentials. These include remote wallet lock, data encryption, biometric authentication, and recovery mechanisms. Initially, a custodial model is used, where the user owns and controls their wallet, but it is hosted on their behalf. This model provides an added layer of security and ease of use. For users familiar with SSI ecosystems and the responsibilities of self-hosting, the option to self-host their wallet will be made available, offering greater control and autonomy over their digital credentials.
Wallets are tied to a single identity. One identity could have many wallets, but a single wallet cannot house multiple identities. On a desktop or laptop, a user could sign in and out whenever needed and their wallet follows them around. However, on a mobile device this would be cumbersome.
