ATIS Launches Identity Privacy Initiative

ATIS announced the launch of a “User-Controlled Privacy Initiative,” to adopt and advance solutions to help industry establish a self-sovereign identity (SSI). “Combining this SSI along with verifiable credential proofs of information greatly enhances individuals' control and rights over their personal data,” ATIS said Thursday. “SSI can address personal data in a way that fosters greater trust between consumers and businesses, while also helping companies comply with new privacy regulations,” said ATIS President Susan Miller. ATIS is looking for member companies to participate.
