The use of blockchain technology backed up with other measures to guarantee originality makes buying this luxurious, timeless piece much more convenient and free of counterfeit worries. Blockchain applications are already been deployed in various different supply chain projects.
Sellers and end-users have long faced challenges with counterfeit branding and products. This new WISeAuthentic certification feature will add increased manufacturing reliability, secure branding against replicas, and provide end-users with magnified product satisfaction, said the founding chief executive officer Carlos Moreira. He further added that these birth certificates, free of duplication, are the much-needed next-level security enhancement required to protect consumers and devices.
Every issued watch birth certificate comes with two cryptographic based keys as a pair distinctive to its IoT device. Embedded in the certificate is the public key which is open to distribution, the private key, however, is used for identity verification and exemplifies the IoT device’s unique identity.
Blockchain technology continues to be popular for its security features. However, the system is well adaptable for enhanced security needs of information storage, digital transactions, and other web based services. WISeKey’s implementation of its lesser-known attributes continues to enhance its importance in manufacturing products of the future.
