How Dentity Protects Your Privacy
Most platforms collect and store your personal data, creating a single point of failure. Dentity takes a different path: cryptography, encryption, and user choice.
Privacy is the first thing people worry about when they hear "blockchain identity." And for good reason.
Most platforms still collect and store personal data. That creates a single point of failure, and a massive security risk.
Dentity takes a different path. We let you verify your identity while staying in control of your personal information. No central databases. No unnecessary exposure. Just cryptography, encryption, and user choice.
No Centralized Storage
Centralized identity platforms rely on databases that can be hacked, leaked, or misused.
Dentity eliminates that risk by not storing your data centrally at all. After verification, credentials belong to you alone. Each wallet is partitioned and encrypted so there is no "honeypot" of data waiting to be breached.
Instead of trusting a company to guard your data, you never hand it over in the first place.
Selective Disclosure
Most systems force you into an all-or-nothing tradeoff. You hand over everything, even if a service only needs one fact.
Dentity works differently. With selective disclosure, you can prove you are over 18 without sharing your full birthdate, or confirm your income without revealing your tax return.
This is powered by BBS+ signatures, a cryptographic technique that proves facts without exposing unrelated details.
Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs)
Traditional identity relies on central authorities to manage who you are. That means risk, and dependence.
Dentity uses Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs). They are cryptographically generated, controlled entirely by you, and not owned by any company.
Paired with ENS, DIDs let you link your verified identity to a human-readable name without revealing personal data.
End-to-End Encryption
Every interaction with Dentity is fully encrypted. Even if data is intercepted, it is unreadable.
Your information stays private not just at rest, but in motion.
Built on Standards You Can Trust
Dentity is not reinventing privacy, it is raising the bar by building on global standards:
- W3C Verifiable Credentials & DIDs: for tamper-proof, cross-platform identity
- OAuth 2.0 & OpenID Connect: for secure logins
- ENS + DNS: bridging blockchain and the web
- Advanced cryptography: BBS+ signatures and selective disclosure proofs
- Privacy compliance: aligned with GDPR, CCPA, NIST, ISO 27001
Why It Matters
Most identity platforms make you choose between security and privacy. Dentity does not.
We put you in control. You decide what to reveal. Data stays encrypted. Identity is verified, not exposed.
This is how blockchain identity should work:
- Secure
- Private
- User-controlled
No unnecessary exposure. No blind trust in central authorities. Just a system that works for you, not against you.
About Dentity
Dentity is on a mission to make the internet a safer place by giving the power of identity back to consumers. Using open identity protocols, including blockchain, Dentity enables trusted peer-to-peer interactions and serves as a self-service platform for credential issuers and verifiers.
Trusted by thousands of consumers and national organizations, the Dentity app features a decentralized mobile wallet that holds shareable ID cards and credentials that cannot be accessed, transferred, intercepted, or altered by anyone but the owner.
Dentity is based in Santa Monica, CA. For more information, visit www.dentity.com or email us.
