Antonio Senatore, Chief Technology Officer of Deloitte’s EMEA Blockchain Lab, said, “Academics and enterprises both stand to benefit hugely from leveraging blockchain technology — for most organizations validating, managing and recording the education qualifications of staff and prospective hires can be a very onerous and costly process, with regulatory fines for non-compliance. Integrating QEDIT’s Zero-Knowledge Proof privacy solution ensures that organizations can trust in the authenticity of qualifications while preserving the full privacy of the underlying data, and upholding regulatory compliance.”

QEDIT’s protocol utilizes zero-knowledge proof cryptography to allow parties employing enterprise blockchains to record and authenticate the transfer of assets on a shared ledger without revealing any underlying, confidential information. Network members can verify the integrity of the proofs, but they cannot see who sent what, or how much, to whom. QEDIT also offers tools for auditors to enable regulatory compliance.
