Apz Sign - Certificate Authentication via Blockchain

The idea is to develop a KYC verification system that is accurate and saves users the hassle to do the same process repeatedly. For doing so, Apz Sign uses machine learning, AI model training, and hashing.

The business solution helps banks, organizations, and other institutions to authenticate the identity of a user quickly and reliably.

Accuracy is the most important issue in taking a live selfie to verify documents. There are many third-party solutions that can offer an accuracy of 60% to 75%. The AI model that we trained for the project, however, assures accuracy of up to 90%.

Another major challenge with Apz Sign is to prevent the uploading of duplicate or fake documents. This is mitigated by leveraging hashing. A hash of the document is saved on the blockchain that allows easy cross-checking of any certificate by simply fetching the corresponding hash of the same.

After the completion of a live selfie to document the authentication process, a certificate is generated. It contains the details of the KYC certifying company and the recipient.

A hash is generated and saved on the blockchain database. When organizations scan the certificate, a hash is generated that is matched with the hash already saved on the blockchain DB. Upon a successful match, the user is authenticated and the organization receives a notification/message for the same.
