This video walks through the journey from today’s problems, to eIDAS regulation, to the EUDI wallet and its real‑world impact on everyday life.

The Problem: Centralized Digital Identity

Section 2 of 7

Traditional digital identity often relies on many separate, centralized databases controlled by different organizations. People must repeatedly share the same personal details, which get copied and stored in multiple places. This duplication increases the risk of data breaches, identity theft, and loss of control over who has access to sensitive information.

However, credentials still depended on centralized systems and government‑issued identities, leaving users with limited flexibility and interoperability across different platforms and private services.
