Mobile ID (Hawyti) Integration
Provide secure remote services to your clients using Mobile ID (Hawyti) app
Kuwait's Public Authority for Civil Information (PACI) provides an electronic wallet solution named Mobile ID (Hawyti) app. This app, which runs on Android and iOS devices includes the Civil Information of its owner, as well as other credentials in an easy-to-access form. Not only does this app provide such information to other entities, it also provides ways to authenticate the owner of the mobile electronically, making it easy to every organization to electronically process the owner's credentials.
This opens a plethora of possibilities to your organization, while making sure the owner's privacy is respected. Your organization may wish to authenticate a person electronically, while the person is in the comfort of her/his seat, with the aim to ensure her/his civil information is correct, official and accurate. Your organization needs to perform this operation while the person cannot repudiate the fact that this information was shared with your organization with her/his consent. All of this is possible using the Mobile ID (Hawyti) app from PACI, and the Mobile ID Implementation Services of Sharper Software.
There are several ways to authenticate people electronically using the Mobile ID (Hawyti) app. The following sections describe these approaches in detail, while listing the prerequisites.
Our team can also assist in building an integration between your existing systems and the Mobile ID (Hawyti) app solution. Contact our team today for more details.
If you need to automate the process of registration online, while ensuring security, privacy and validity of data, Mobile ID (Hawyti) integration is the answer to all your challenges.
