SINGLE SIGN ON WALLET AS A SERVICE
GLASS introduces a versatile single sign-on wallet for aggregating personal documents like digital ID, passport, certificates, etc. This platform manages user transactions across various services delivered through custom Distributed Applications within GLASS’ ecosystem. The wallet grants citizens control over shared information, promoting user-centric data ownership. The Wallet revolutionizes public bodies' internal protocols and interactions, fostering a direct, authority-free digital engagement.
IPFS
InterPlanetary File System integrates a public governance model and a distributed file storage network within GLASS. This novel approach assigns a cryptographic hash fingerprint to files, information, and network building blocks, enhancing file storage and sharing policies. IPFS enables content-based file searches, departing from traditional server-location searches. This distributed approach empowers direct file downloads from network nodes, eliminating central management dependency.
DISTRIBUTED LEDGER
The distributed ledger enhances the network's open-source, scalable and distributed nature of the network, providing complementary functionalities to the IPFS. Built on P2P decentralized architecture, it safeguards our public infrastructure's integrity. The validation ledger deploys an eco-friendly consensus protocol, matched to GLASS' authenticated data sharing, within a hybrid distributed and decentralized public structure with IPFS, defining the time/speed that the network reaches consensus.
ANALYTICS MODULE
Through dedicated dashboards, the Analytics Module facilitates the provision of the analytics results to the GLASS administrators for monitoring purposes without revealing any personal or sensitive data of wallet users. The Analytics Module also allows the exploration of transactions in the distributed spaces of GLASS in a privacy-respecting manner by the GLASS administrators.
DISTRIBUTED APPLICATION ECOSYSTEM
DAPPs, essentially software pieces operating on a distributed protocol, distribute computational load across multiple nodes in the network, ensuring service continuity without a central point of failure. This decentralized approach enhances reliability, scalability, and security compared to centralized applications.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DATA SCHEMA TRANSFORMER
A middleware component that identify and map data schemas within different types of systems and architectures and interprets them accordingly among heterogeneous and non-standardized systems, enabling interoperability among cross-border organisations, systems and datatabases.
