Trust Stamp, with the participation of Partisia, a pioneer in secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC), has signed a commercial agreement with Digital Platformer, a leader in decentralised solutions, to deploy and develop technologies that advance financial security, identity verification, and privacy protection across Japan's financial services sector and the wider region.
Three-party commercial agreement for decentralised identity solutions in Japan.
Combines Trust Stamp's Fuzzy IT² biometric tokenisation with Partisia's MPC platform.
No single entity can access user's confidential data, preserving self-sovereignty.
Identity tokens split into secure shares distributed across multiple MPC nodes.
Targets financial services, insurance, healthcare, and government sectors.
Addresses cybersecurity threats, data privacy concerns, and usability challenges.
Japan is continuing to make steady progress in its digital transformation, with organizations across sectors such as financial services, insurance, healthcare, and government working to modernize their systems and enhance digital services. Alongside these efforts, there is a growing need to strengthen security measures, address increasingly sophisticated risks, and respond to evolving regulatory expectations, while maintaining a high standard of usability and trust for end users. Japan's experience reflects a challenge playing out across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. As digital services evolve, organisations face increasingly sophisticated cybersecurity threats, growing concerns over data privacy, and the challenge of balancing security with usability. Traditional authentication methods — such as passwords and centralised credentials — remain vulnerable to breaches, while emerging alternatives introduce new risks.
In response, the three parties will deliver a unified privacy-preserving biometric authentication solution under Digital Platformer's next-generation identity platform. The architecture integrates Trust Stamp's Fuzzy IT² biometric tokenisation with Partisia's MPC platform to ensure that no single entity — including the identity service provider — can access a user's confidential data, significantly reducing reliance on any single point of failure and preserving full self-sovereignty. The solution generates a privacy-preserving biometric token from the user's device, after which an MPC-based facial matching and signing process is executed using a secret-shared private key. The resulting identity tokens are split into secure shares and distributed across multiple MPC nodes, ensuring they are never reassembled at any single location during comparison and that tokenized biometric data remains protected at all times. Traditional biometric systems compare data on a central server, creating a high-value target for attackers; this architecture significantly reduces such vulnerabilities compared to traditional centralized systems. The joint solution gives Digital Platformer full flexibility to define and control how the service is integrated for each client based on their specific authentication requirements.
Conclusion
As Gareth Genner, CEO of Trust Stamp, stated: "This collaboration is grounded in a shared commitment to advancing both security and usability across the digital economy. By combining our tokenised biometric authentication with Partisia's MPC infrastructure and Digital Platformer's advanced platform, we are enabling a decentralised and integrated solution that strengthens regulatory compliance while opening new possibilities for organizations operating in increasingly complex technological and regulatory landscapes."
Ikkei Matsuda, CEO of Digital Platformer, said: "Our partnership with Trust Stamp marks a significant step toward redefining digital identity and financial security. At Digital Platformer, we leverage cutting-edge blockchain technology to establish trustless identity solutions that ensure authenticity, while adding trust to the secure ownership and transactions of digital assets. Through this collaboration, we aim to provide a more secure and efficient authentication and transaction environment across industries such as finance, healthcare, and government, expanding the potential of decentralized technologies."
Mark, CPO of Partisia, added: "Partisia's MPC technology was designed precisely for challenges like this — where sensitive data must be processed with full verifiability but zero exposure. Integrating our platform with Trust Stamp's Fuzzy IT² biometric tokenisation within Digital Platformer's decentralized architecture creates something genuinely new: a system where authentication is both highly secure and provably private, without reliance on a single centralized authority. This is the architecture that financial institutions and governments have been waiting for, and we are proud to bring it to the Japanese market and beyond."
