A Brief History

Gataca is a cybersecurity firm specializing in decentralized identity management technology.

Originating as a research project at MIT in 2017, Gataca emerged in response to the flaws in conventional internet authentication systems, which were recognized as significant contributors to cybersecurity breaches and identity theft.

To address these concerns, Gataca proposed a decentralized authentication framework that redefines the conventional roles within identity management and developed a decentralized identity solution to facilitate the issuance, verification, and management of digital credentials in a secure and compliant manner.

Today, corporations and institutions worldwide use their solutions to interact with ID wallets for compliant identity verification and authentication, making Gataca one of the leading companies in this space.

Gataca Products

Gataca technology comprises the following products:

Gataca Wallet

Gataca Wallet is a mobile app that enables users to store and share verifiable credentials to authenticate easily in digital services.

These credentials, such as a national ID, an academic diploma, or an employee card, are digitized following open standards, cryptographically signed by authorities to ensure their authenticity, and protected with biometrics and strong encryption so only the users can decide who access their data.

The Gataca Wallet is available in iOS and Android app stores:
