Director of Risk and Compliance of AutoTech
Industry
Automotive Supplier
Initial situation
The solution
Outcome
Initial situation
A year ago, AutoTech was confronted with the problem of counterfeit vehicle parts coming onto the market. This posed an additional risk to vehicle quality and led to considerable legal costs to prove that the products were counterfeit. Alex, Director of Risk and Compliance at AutoTech, now wants to tackle the problem once and for all.
The solution
The solution
Embedding decentralized identity and verifiable credentials into its vehicle parts using the Identity Gateway to verify the originality of components and ensure transparency within the supply chain.
How it works?
AutoTech uses the Identity Gateway to create a decentralized organization-identity in seconds. AutoTech uses this organization-identity to automatically issue signed, tamper-proof and verifiable credentials for vehicle components, including important data such as “Produced by AutoTech” and other production details

Initial situation
The solution
Outcome
Initial situation
The automotive company is evolving its vehicles into cutting-edge digital platforms by integrating numerous services, infrastructure systems, components, external partners and customer interactions. This complexity results in operational inefficiencies and significant security concerns regarding authorized access control. Additionally, achieving stakeholder consensus on a unified OEM platform proves challenging due to potential dependencies and varying interests.
The solution
The solution
Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) and the Identity Gateway make it easy for organizations, people, and devices to get a unified identity and method. Getting this identity is automatically an initial onboarding into a larger, neutral SSI ecosystem. Already existing identities of parties, systems, devices or customers can continue to use their identities, because these can be easily verified by the Automotive Co. in the SSI ecosystem.
Automotive Co. can then grant fine-grained and large-scale authorized access to the vehicle platform using verifiable credentials tied to specific identities. This approach ensures a seamless integration with interoperable identities and strong access control.
How it works?
Our Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) solution significantly reduces attack vectors and points of failure compared to centralized legacy systems, where a single breach can compromise the entire system.
