Trusted Diplomas
What are "Trusted Diplomas"?
Trusted Diplomas are digital diplomas that are stored and verified on a blockchain through enotar.io. Simply put, they are digital records of academic achievement stored in our distributed, secure and decentralized system. These diplomas are tamper-proof, easily verifiable, and accessible from anywhere in the world. In addition, the technology behind Trusted Diplomas can have applications beyond diploma verification. For example, it can be used to certify the authenticity of other educational documents, such as transcripts, course completion certificates, or certificates of specific skills.
How does work?
When an institution issues a diploma, it is recorded on a blockchain. Each record contains relevant information such as the student's name, institution, course, date, and other important details.
Once the information is recorded on the blockchain, it becomes virtually immutable, meaning it cannot be altered or deleted. What makes our service even more unique is that we can customize it to meet the specific needs of your educational institution. Once the information is recorded on the blockchain, the diploma on our enotar.io platform is fully customized to reflect the identity and standards of the educational institution. This includes the design, graphic elements and all other relevant details.
In addition, our digital diplomas offer several options for use and access. They can be consulted in real time, allowing an interactive visualization of the digital diploma. They can also be easily downloaded and shared in digital format. In this way, graduates can conveniently and securely access their diplomas and share them with employers, professional schools or academic institutions around the world.
If the institution prints the diplomas, it is also possible to add a QR code to them, which redirects to the blockchain entry where the information was recorded. In this way, any interested entity, employer or educational institution can easily verify the authenticity of the diploma by simply scanning the QR code or following the link.
Benefits
Anti-counterfeiting
Traditional diplomas can be easily forged, making them susceptible to tampering and counterfeiting. Blockchain technology prevents this by recording each diploma as an immutable record on the blockchain, meaning it cannot be altered or tampered with after it is issued.
Against identity theft
In some cases, traditional diplomas can be issued to people who falsify their identity. Blockchain technology solves this problem by requiring that each student's identity be verified and registered on the blockchain before the diploma is issued. This ensures that diplomas are only issued to legitimate individuals and prevents identity theft.
Efficient verification
Verifying traditional diplomas can be a long and complicated process, requiring communication with educational institutions and manual verification of the authenticity of documents. With Trusted Diplomas, verification is simplified and streamlined, as anyone can access the blockchain record and instantly verify the validity and authenticity of the diploma.
