WISeKey International Holding Ltd (“WISeKey”) a leading global cybersecurity, blockchain, and IoT company, announces that in an era where personal data has become the currency of the digital world, the Company is setting a new standard with WISe.Social, a proof-of-concept social media platform designed to restore user control over digital identity, data privacy, and consent. Unlike conventional platforms that monetize user information without transparent accountability, WISe.Social is built from the ground up with privacy, security, and user sovereignty as its core principles.

At the heart of WISe.Social lies WISeKey’s advanced Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), enabling every user to own their digital identity through a cryptographic certificate issued by the platform. This certificate acts as a secure authentication method, allowing seamless login across various digital services while ensuring that personal identity remains under the sole control of the user. Should the user choose to revoke their certificate, all associated content is either deleted or made available for download, reinforcing the fundamental principle that personal data should belong to the individual, not the platform.
By integrating blockchain technology, WISe.Social ensures full transparency in content moderation, safeguarding users against arbitrary censorship or manipulative algorithms. Every moderation decision is immutably recorded, creating a verifiable and accountable framework for digital discourse. The platform also eliminates the rampant spread of misinformation, fake accounts, and bots by requiring all profiles to be tied to a verifiable digital identity.
WISe.Social goes beyond traditional security measures by incorporating post-quantum cryptography, protecting users against emerging cyber threats that could compromise sensitive information. This future-proof approach guarantees that personal data remains secure in an evolving technological landscape.
As governments and regulatory bodies worldwide demand greater compliance with data protection laws such as GDPR, WISe.Social provides a model for how social networks can align with privacy regulations while fostering a more ethical digital ecosystem. The platform redefines consent by allowing users to control their data lifecycle, dictating how and when their information is used.
WISeKey believes that the future of social media must be built on trust, accountability, and user empowerment. With WISe.Social, individuals reclaim ownership of their digital presence, ensuring that their personal data is protected, their identity remains private, and their consent is always respected. By challenging outdated norms and reshaping the way online platforms operate, WISeKey is leading the charge toward a more secure, transparent, and privacy-centric digital world.
