Overview
What is Airside?
Airside is a United States based digital identity platform built around a "verify once, share anywhere" model. A person verifies their identity once, holds the resulting credential on their own device, and then chooses to share verified attributes with a relying party. It grew out of Airside Mobile, the company behind the Mobile Passport travel app, and later became part of Entrust following its acquisition by Onfido.
Unlike a government national identity register, Airside is a private, user-held credential wallet. The person builds a verified identity from documents and biometrics, and consents each time before any data is released, so the relying party sees only the attributes the person agrees to share.
In a Zenoo flow, the person authenticates with their Airside credential and consents to share verified attributes such as name and date of birth. Zenoo receives the shared attributes and a verified result, and writes the outcome to the case with an audit record.
