Ditto has launched its privacy-first digital identity platform aimed at enhancing customer identity access management with cryptographic certainty.
Previously known as Uniken, the platform builds on its legacy of secure innovation to support the evolving regulatory landscape, which demands more from identity solutions as consumers increasingly assert control over their personal data. These developments are driven by significant regulatory shifts such as the eIDAS and EUDI wallet initiatives, fostering an environment where individuals manage their own data rather than relying on centralized systems.
Decentralized Identity Frameworks
As the identity landscape advances, Ditto addresses the shift towards decentralized identity frameworks that balance information sharing with access to digital services. This change introduces a new infrastructure paradigm, requiring businesses to integrate both centralized and decentralized identity systems. Organizations must adapt their authentication and verification processes to meet consumer expectations of greater data control and reduced friction.
With cryptographic certainty embedded at its core, the Ditto platform offers secure access through mathematically proven, fraud-resistant authentication methods. Its approach emphasizes using digital wallets for storing re-usable identities, allowing users to verify their identity once and maintain that trust across various services. The application of zero-knowledge proof processes ensures identity verification without compromising personal data, transforming identity management from a compliance obligation into a trust-driven opportunity.
Delivering Frictionless Experiences
The platform’s architecture relies on non-repudiable, cryptographic proof for user verification
The platform’s architecture relies on non-repudiable, cryptographic proof for user verification, enabling organizations to exceed compliance obligations and provide secure, seamless user interactions. According to Gonzalo Alonso, CEO at Ditto, "There is no room for doubt in identity security... Identity has long been an afterthought in transactions to validate legitimacy. In reality, it should fuel transactions and initiate smooth, secure engagements between consumers and organizations."
Alonso further added, "We’re taking Uniken’s cryptographic innovation, and through Ditto, preparing businesses for the era of re-usable identities. Progressive regulation such as the EUDI wallet initiative is setting the standard, mirroring how data-conscious consumers perceive their digital selves and putting the onus on businesses to verify customers with less. Failure to do so could see consumers quickly lose trust and vote with their feet."
Privacy-First Security Solutions
The introduction of Ditto signifies a new phase for the identity and security capabilities developed by Uniken since 2013. Having safeguarded millions of users in sectors like financial services and telecommunications, Ditto extends this expertise into a consolidated identity platform focused on privacy-preserving and high-assurance verification and authentication.
The Ditto platform supports the complete identity lifecycle, leveraging three integrated solutions:
Ditto Verify
- Facilitates reusable, verifiable digital identity
- Incorporates proof-based identity attributes and biometric verification
- Compatible with emerging digital wallet and EUDI-style frameworks
- Allows single verification, with trust reused across services
Ditto Authenticate
- Delivers robust, cryptographic user authentication
- Ensures genuine identification of persons, devices, or entities
- Operates smoothly across multiple channels and devices
- Employs patented zero-knowledge proof techniques to limit data exposure
Ditto Protect
- Safeguards devices, apps, and user interactions
- Detects threats and prevents compromise of devices and apps
- Deploys across various device types, adapting to specific capabilities and threat surfaces
Ditto, the privacy-first digital identity platform trusted to secure every interaction, launches today to bring cryptographic certainty to customer identity access management. Built on proven industry heritage, its unified solution meets the requirements of a new regulatory era defined by privacy-conscious consumers and re-usable identities.
Formerly Uniken, a trusted partner to organizations such as Temenos and Infosys, Ditto’s evolution reflects the changing face of identity. Driven by landmark regulation such as eIDAS and the EUDI wallet initiative, consumers are becoming the custodians of their personal data, taking back ownership of centralized information held by the organizations they interact with daily.
Decentralized identity frameworks
This next phase is characterized by re-usable, decentralized identity frameworks that remove the unavoidable trade-off between information sharing and access to digital services. For businesses, this represents a fundamental infrastructure shift that requires them to straddle centralized and decentralized identity, while catering to and protecting consumers across multiple devices and channels. They will need to rethink authentication and verification processes to reduce the volume of PII they handle, as customers seek more control and expect less friction.
Ditto addresses these challenges by putting cryptographic certainty at the core of identity. The platform gives legitimate users secure access to organizations with mathematically demonstrable, fraud-resistant authentication. Re-usable identities held in digital wallets allow customers to verify once and carry that trust across services. At the same time, zero-knowledge proof practices enable verification without exposing personal data, turning identity from a compliance burden into a trust engine.
Delivering frictionless experiences
Built on architecture that requires non-repudiable, cryptographic proof to verify customer interactions, the platform helps organizations move beyond compliance to deliver secure, frictionless experiences.
Gonzalo Alonso, CEO at Ditto, said: “There is no room for doubt in identity security. Every transaction and customer interaction matters, which means organizations can’t rely on assumptions or fragile passwords. Identity has long been an afterthought in transactions to validate legitimacy. In reality, it should fuel transactions and initiate smooth, secure engagements between consumers and organizations.”
“We’re taking Uniken’s cryptographic innovation, and through Ditto, preparing businesses for the era of re-usable identities. Progressive regulation such as the EUDI wallet initiative is setting the standard, mirroring how data-conscious consumers perceive their digital selves and putting the onus on businesses to verify customers with less. Failure to do so could see consumers quickly lose trust and vote with their feet.”
Privacy-first security solutions
The launch of Ditto marks the next chapter in the evolution of Uniken’s identity and security technology. Founded in 2013, Uniken has delivered privacy-first security solutions to organizations around the world and protected millions of users across financial services, telecommunications, and other regulated industries.
Ditto builds on this foundation, bringing the same core principles into a unified identity platform that prioritises privacy-preserving, high assurance verification and authentication. The Ditto platform is designed to secure the entire identity lifecycle via three integrated solutions:
- Ditto Verify
- Enables reusable, verifiable digital identity
- Supports proof-based identity attributes and biometric verification
- Designed to align with emerging digital wallet and EUDI-style frameworks
- Allows organizations to verify customers once and reuse that trust across services.
- Ditto Authenticate
- Provides strong, cryptographic user authentication
- Confirms that the person, device, or entity is genuine
- Works seamlessly across channels and devices
- Uses patented zero-knowledge proof techniques to minimize data exposure.
- Ditto Protect
- Secures devices, apps and user interactions
- Identifies threats and prevents interactions with compromised devices and apps
- Deploys across device types and adapts to their specific capabilities and threat surface
