Zero-Data Onboarding and Progressive Disclosure

Instead of demanding a full dossier on first contact, zero-data onboarding asks for minimal proof aligned to a clear purpose, then expands only as relationships deepen. This reduces abandonment, protects privacy, and strengthens long-term trust. Tell us which verification moments felt respectful, and which felt intrusive.

Privacy-Preserving Technologies: Differential Privacy, Federated Learning, and Beyond

By injecting carefully calibrated statistical noise, differential privacy allows teams to detect spending trends without identifying any single customer. Product managers still get useful insights, while individuals remain shielded. Have you seen dashboards that respect privacy yet feel insightful? Share screenshots or descriptions so we can showcase best practices.
Self-sovereign identity credentials you actually control
With decentralized identifiers and verifiable credentials, you hold cryptographic proof of attributes like income or residency. You present them when needed and revoke access at will. No more endless copies scattered across servers. Would this reduce your onboarding fatigue? Share where you would want it implemented first.
Selective disclosure with zero-knowledge proofs
Zero-knowledge proofs let you confirm a fact, such as being over eighteen or earning above a threshold, without revealing the underlying values. This reduces over-collection and sharpens purpose limitations. If your bank offered ZKP-backed attestations, which processes would you upgrade first? We are gathering examples to publish.
Interoperability across wallets, banks, and regulators
Credentials are most powerful when interoperable. Open standards enable secure verification across institutions and borders, minimizing duplication and errors. Imagine switching providers with one tap, carrying permissions with you. Which standards or ecosystems should we watch closely this year? Nominate them, and we will analyze maturity and gaps.

Explainability and Data Dignity in Personalization

Imagine receiving a receipt showing what data influenced a recommendation, the model’s confidence, and how to turn signals off. Clear, accessible receipts transform suspicion into informed choice. Which phrases reduce confusion most effectively? Share wording that resonates, and we will compile a community-tested glossary.

Explainability and Data Dignity in Personalization

A great preference center is not a checkbox cemetery. It reflects evolving needs, offering purpose-specific toggles, time-bound permissions, and explanations of trade-offs. When people feel respected, opt-in rates rise. What controls would you prioritize—granular notification settings, location purpose toggles, or data expiry timers? Cast your vote.
Translating policy into machine-readable controls creates consistent enforcement and auditable outcomes. Engineers and lawyers collaborate on testable rules, reducing ambiguity and surprises. Which frameworks or tools have helped your team bridge the gap between policy and code? We are compiling field-tested patterns and pitfalls from practitioners.
Sharding, pseudonymization, and regional processing can respect local laws while supporting global services. The trick is designing for locality without fragmenting user experience. If your product spans regions, how do you balance latency, cost, and compliance? Share architecture sketches, and we will highlight insightful approaches.
Audits should not be dusty binders. Provide user-facing logs showing who accessed data, why, and under which legal basis. Empower customers to dispute or revoke access. Which interfaces communicate assurance without overwhelming people? Nominate examples of thoughtful audit UX we can analyze and celebrate together.

Security Innovations for Everyday People

Passkeys and phishing-resistant authentication

Passkeys replace fragile passwords with device-bound cryptography, shutting down phishing and credential stuffing. People sign in with biometrics they already trust. If you have migrated to passkeys, what adoption hurdles appeared—legacy browsers, shared devices, or recovery flows? Your lessons can help thousands of teams ship safer experiences.
Open banking proves that secure, consented data sharing can spark competition and customer delight. Clear expiry dates and scopes reduce fear. Which API experiences felt most empowering as a user or builder? Share examples, and we will benchmark them to inspire better, safer integrations across the industry.
