Austria to Put Ardor Blockchain-Based Comms in Citizens’ Hands
A child chain called Ignis by software company Jelurida will be a part of a new project – QualiSig – that has for a goal secure, blockchain-based communication between Austrian authorities, the country’s institutions and citizens in the times of the pandemic. Jelurida’s Yaffe told Cryptonews.com that, in the case of QualiSig, secure information of Austrian COVID-19 cases will be kept as a token on the Ignis blockchain.
People can run an Ardor light node, which is a mobile app that maintains synchronization with the blockchain, which is “very cheap, easy and has low requirements,” and it allows them to verify the entire consensus layer that protects their data – this then results in an increase of their own security, argues the Jelurida boss. The combination of digital qualified signatures such as the “A-Trust Handy-Signature” and Ardor’s Ignis child chain is based on Pfeiffer’s current research, the announcement adds.
