Var Group has been cited again by Gartner in the field of digital identity, consolidating its position as one of the leading technology providers in verifiable credentials.

Gartner highlights that decentralized digital identity has enormous future potential and projects that by 2026 at least 500 million smartphone users will regularly use digital wallets based on blockchain technology.

Thus, Var Group is mentioned in the new Market Guide for Decentralized Identity, a report that reinforces the relevance of its technological proposal in the international ecosystem, and in two Hype Cycles of Digital Identity and Fraud Prevention.

These three new recognitions for 2025 are added to the one obtained last year —when, through Wise Security, Var Group already appeared in its first Market Guide for Decentralized Identity. This underlines the company’s progress in the development and implementation of decentralized digital identity solutions.

Its repeated presence in Gartner analyzes responds to a key factor: real clients who are successfully deploying these technologies, demonstrating their solidity, applicability and maturity in terms of identity.

Democratize control of identity data

As stated in this second Market Guide for Decentralized Identity, decentralized digital identity solutions are crucial for today’s society, since they democratize the control of identity data, providing privacy, anonymity and autonomy to users.

Gartner views this technology as relevant and mature due to its ability to significantly improve security and privacy, and reduce costs and complexity in identity verification. As the report states, we are at a point of maturation within identity verification.

At this time, the pilot project phase has been passed, and there are solid projects in which the real value of digital identity is demonstrated. In the case of Var Group, with projects with direct application to citizens, such as the case of the Andorra Digital Portfolio.

With the mentions in this Market Guide and the new Hype Cycles, Var Group repeats Gartner’s recognition of its development and use of Decentralized Digital Identity, further reinforcing its role as a reference in identity solutions.

The prestigious international consulting firm has already recognized Var Group Iberia on other occasions (specifically its acquired company Wise Security) for its implementation of digital identity solutions.

Var Group’s digital identity offer

Var Group has two solutions in the field of decentralized digital identity, both with success stories and in production. These solutions allow organizations to manage and share their verifiable credentials securely and efficiently, without relying on centralized entities that may be vulnerable to attacks or data breaches.

On the one hand, Definitive ID, the self-sovereign digital identity solution based on blockchain, thanks to which users can identify themselves on one or more platforms with their unique ID in a more secure, easier way and having sovereign control of their data.

On the other hand, Wise DID Authenticator, a software based on Decentralized Digital Identity (DID) used to verify the identity of a user or device and allow or deny access to a protected system or resource.

This Var Group system allows you to guarantee the security of the systems and resources you access, and thanks to the decentralized digital identity in blockchain, it provides greater security, privacy, multi-factor authentication, flexibility and decentralized identity management.
