Authoriti Launches Software Developer Partner Program

NEW YORK, April 18, 2018 -- The Authoriti Network, which was founded last year to create new approaches to prevent misuse of data, announced today the launch of its Software Developer Partner program.   The program enables Independent Software Vendors and software engineers to embed Permission Code^TM generation within their apps.

The Authoriti Permission Code puts control of transactions in the hands of the consumer and gives institutions the confidence that every action is authorized.  Consumers can authorize a wide variety of requests, including tax return filing, money transfers, insurance billing, sharing medical and financial information, or even social network data sharing.

“The Permission Code answers one question – was this activity authorized,” says Lou Steinberg, Managing Partner of Authoriti. “The Authoriti Software Developer partner program is designed to foster a community of developers to leverage Permission Codes for virtually any use case that requires data sharing or financial transactions.”

Last week, Steinberg published a blog, “Data Privacy: We Are Solving the Wrong Problem.” The blog encouraged industry leaders and lawmakers to focus on preventing misuse of data rather than data secrecy.

How the Permission Code Works

Institutions that need to approve a transaction simply ask for an Authoriti Permission Code. The consumer generates the Permission Code with a smartphone app.

The consumer may set a Permission Code to authorize a specific activity, last for a set period of time, within a certain place, for a specific service.  A simple RESTful service call to Authoriti validates that the user associated with the ID has generated the code and that the transaction is authorized for the specific purpose.

About The Authoriti Network

The Authoriti Network was founded in 2017 to identify new approaches to prevent misuse of Identifiers and Personally Identifiable Information. The Company believes we should regulate data misuse, forcing those that receive and process consumer data to get explicit permission for each use or transaction. 

Our founders have significant leadership experience dealing with InfoSec at-scale in the world's leading financial institutions. Authoriti develops the patent-pending Authoriti Permission Code™, which puts control of transactions in the hands of the consumer and gives institutions the confidence that the transactions are authorized.
