Edentiti wins Novay Digital Identity Award!

Edentiti has received some fantastic news this morning! We're proud to announce that we have won the Identity.Next’11 conference's Novay Digital Identity Award for the best new concept or product in the field of digital identity. This award was presented to us via Skype from the conference in The Hague, Netherlands.

The competition was world class, which makes this even more of an honour for us.  Here are some snippets from the press release:

What the jury found particularly appealing about Edentiti is the efficient 
and innovative manner in which they rely on existing online identities that a
 user has, and use these as a basis for identity proofing for new online 
services.  

Hermen van der Lugt, director of research institute Novay and chairman of the jury: “It is easier for end-users and less expensive for online businesses than 
traditional face-to-face identity verification approaches. Additionally, Edentiti lets the individual control the whole process of identity
 verification, which is a big plus, considering the privacy
/sensitivity.”
