If you can reliably authenticate data, instead of sharing data, you can eliminate a lot of legal obstacles. Many systems can encrypt, but because traditionally the encryption key and decryption key aren’t the same, there is room for corruption. With Data QR, the encryption and decryption key are the same, giving it greater authenticity. Data QR is video and can be transmitted safely, can contain much more data than 2d QRs, and authentication ability doesn’t expire because the key pair doesn’t expire.

Legally, biometric data is a powerful tool in the defense against terrorism by reducing the ability of the enemy to remain anonymous. Data QR, along with BSS Unit’s Cyber Threat Intel system Cyber Intel Matrix (CIM), enables secure authentication and identification of terrorists, particularly APTs (Advanced Persistent Threats).

The Executive Director of BSS Unit/Data QR, Andras Patkai, had a role in the panel because BSS Unit’s technologies alleviate legal challenges, while empowering individuals in connectivity and automation. Supply chain automation in any vertical is pertinent.

MIT invited Patkai to join its Crypto and Biometric Panel because of BSS Unit’s ongoing role in NATO’s NATO Biometrics Technical Interoperability Workshop. At the most recent workshop, Dec 1, 2021, in The Hauge, Patkai demonstrated Data QR. NATO’s interest in Data QR and CIM, is to authenticate rather than share data, enable offline verification, and connect a biometric subject’s “identity biometric record” to their personal data & intel. Such authentication of personal identifying documents reduces intentional fraud, error, and exclusive reliance on the probabilistic nature of the biometric matching process. NATO’s follow-up report confirmed that the 3D Data QR has the ability to assist NATO in reaching its goals. Key to Data QR’s power is not only its reliability but interoperability with all biometric systems.
