WISeKey to introduce WISeID Cloud at the Global Competitiveness Forum 2014 in Riyadh
Riyadh, Geneva 20 January 2014 - WISeKey will be presenting the WISeID Cloud
Digital Platform at the Global Competitiveness Forum 2014. The Global
Competitiveness Forum (GCF) is an annual meeting that brings together 1,000
high-ranking corporate and political leaders for three days of discussion and
dialogue with respect to the positive impact organizational and national
competitiveness can have on local, regional and global economic and social
development. The GCF is an annual event organized by the Saudi Arabia General
Investment Authority under the patronage of the HM King Abdullah Bin Abdulaziz.
Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of WISeKey, will speak at the panel session "New
Digital Age" which will explore the future of digital connectivity and business
dependence on the virtual world. Â Mr. Moreira will showcase WISeKey's WISeID
platform. WISeID provides trusted digital identities for individuals who
interact in social media and perform confidential transactions on open graphs.
The WISeID Cloud app is a set of online tools to empower the user by providing
secure, authenticated, and private digital identification. WISeID's upcoming
version 5 provides secure personal cloud storage of identity and data in
WISeKey's Swiss Cloud storage and enables users to protect and sync their data
and passwords across their personal devices.
"At WISeKey we advocate that personal data protection need not be neglected for
the enjoyment of social media or surrendered to the network provider. A number
of social graphs have emerged by controlling slices of social media, but as
isolated models each becomes a de-facto resource, compromising individual
privacy. WISeID gives users the best of both worlds by providing the freedom to
enjoy the full spectrum of open graph systems from social to transactional,
without compromising personal digital security," -Carlos Moreira, Founder and
CEO of WISeKey.
