Governments are exploring the development of multipurpose foundational ID systems, in which the individuals receive a unique identifier from the government that they can use for identity assertion and verification. It can then be used to access a wide variety of government and private services.
Functional IDs are the IDs that are used in specific use cases. By design, they are created having an end usage in mind. The Functional ID systems can leverage the Foundational ID system.
MOSIP is a robust, secure, open source platform for building foundational identity systems. MOSIP is configurable and flexible to adapt to a country’ national ID requirements.
MOSIP needs to work along with other ecosystem players to create a solution for a particular country.
Key MOSIP offerings are:
ID Lifecycle Management
ID Authentication
National ID systems can leverage MOSIP as the base platform and configure, customize, extend it to build systems just the way needed. The image below depicts how MOSIP provides the base layer to build a national ID platform.
