Wipro Lab45, the innovation lab of leading technology services and consulting company, Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT, BSE: 507685, NSE: WIPRO), today announced the launch of its Decentralized Identity and Credential Exchange (DICE) ID, which puts users in control of their personal data and enables faster, easier and secure sharing of private information online.

Powered by blockchain technology, DICE ID enables the issuance and verification of tamper-proof, self-verifying digital credentials. DICE ID stores verified personal information from certified issuers in an identity wallet owned by the user. (See video)

All data is encrypted and embedded and is only received by the user in their own identity wallet. This digital wallet can be used to share identity or credentials for a wide range of purposes – including current or potential employers, healthcare or financial services providers, or educational institutions. DICE ID gives users control over their personal data, allowing them to decide exactly how much and what type of information they want to disclose in digital settings.

“DICE ID leverages the core principles of blockchain technology to transform the way consumers manage their online identities,” said

Subha Tatavarti

Chief Technology Officer, Wipro Limited.

“Current online identification relies on the use of single sign-on services, which require users to share personal data with multiple third parties. DICE ID gives the power back to the individual, making it easier and safer than ever to manage the sharing of personal data on digital platforms. We believe decentralized identity and verifiable credential technology will be a game changer resulting in a metamorphosis of the identity space. And we are excited to be at the forefront of this innovative technology.”

DICE ID leverages the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) verifiable credential model with open data, which makes the credential machine-readable and interoperable and enables secure exchange between ecosystem actors.

DICE ID has been piloted by select customers since September 2022 and has already been used in many ways, particularly proving to be powerful in credential verification for talent/crowdsourcing purposes.

Among the use cases for DICE ID are:

• Ed-tech organizations, colleges and crowdsourcing communities use DICE ID to create a talent exchange ecosystem through portable skills credentials for learners and freelancers.

• Fintech and financial institutions use DICE ID to manage user consent and share their data while preserving their privacy and confidentiality.

• Health tech startups use DICE ID to protect medical data, increasing patient trust in their platform.

• Government-affiliated institutions use the DICE ID to help citizens prove their eligibility for benefits and other social schemes.

• Metaverse platforms use DICE ID to create Sybil-resistant communities through pseudonymous identities for avatars.
