The MOSIP Project

Supported by:

The Modular Open Source Identity Platform was established in 2018 to support governments in providing its residents with an official form of the most important human asset – identity.

As nations around the world proceed on their digital transformation journeys towards true digital economies, a robust and secure national ID system is the crucial first step. With a foundational national ID system in place, a government can build effective civil registries, and service delivery systems, serving the population in a myriad of ways. Among other benefits, robust systems like these enable faster disaster relief, climate resilience, ease of starting new businesses, and better access to financial inclusion, healthcare, and education.

At the heart of every MOSIP-based ID system lies a commitment to serving the unique needs of a country and its residents.

We are committed to

transparent, secure,

human-centric technology

MOSIP’s adaptable, modular architecture provides ownership to adopting countries. Our open-source, open standards policy allows us to welcome code contributions from developers around the world, build a large roster of compliant technology partners, and remain transparent, while maintaining the best practices of security and privacy.

Our global team of experts and advisors supports countries through the process of adopting digital ID as a common rail of governance. We are also committed to building and nurturing global communities of technology partners, research institutions, and developers.

MOSIP Guiding Principles

+
MOSIP’s mutually-exclusive technology bundles.

Rather than a stand-alone solution offered to every adopting nation, MOSIP technology allows user countries to build custom workflows. Each functionality is built with independent microservices to provide flexibility and control.
We are committed to developing trusted and transparent technology, and being a part of the effort towards developing global standards.

An open-source code repository, available in entirety on GitHub, encourages contributions from user communities and offers governments control over their ID systems. MOSIP also actively works with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), governments, and a commercial ecosystem to arrive at common

Open Standards and Protocols.

This makes MOSIP easy to integrate, interoperable, cost- and time-efficient.
We offer governments the ability to integrate with a wide range of compliant technology partners.

In the setting up of a foundational digital ID system, it is critical that platform, biometric devices, and system integrators, are able to integrate and function smoothly. Vendor-neutrality, maintained through the MOSIP Partner Programme and the establishment of the MOSIP Marketplace offers countries the ability to choose and change their technology solutions at any time, and save precious time and financial resources.
We believe every individual should be in control of their own data.

MOSIP is designed keeping data security and privacy in mind, ensuring that data is protected in flight and rest. Cryptographic encryption and zero knowledge architecture ensure that no sensitive data is stored on the MOSIP system. Governments of adopting nations have sovereign control over their ID systems, and data sharing only happens with the individual’s consent.
Zero-cost platform adoption, licensing, and capacity-building.

MOSIP’s cutting-edge technology can be freely used by any government or organisation to build a foundational digital ID system, under Mozilla’s Public License 2.0. The automation of processes within the platform minimises the cost of implementation, and allows countries to test and create effective digital infrastructure at a minimal cost.
Unique technology for unique environments.

We aim to develop technology that can cater to diverse and varying requirements around the world. The expert team at MOSIP constantly strives to learn from on-ground experiences in adopting nations, to understand their context-specific requirements and provide unique and adaptable solutions.
Technology that leaves no one behind.

With the mission of empowering lives all over the world, MOSIP continues to take steps towards being an inclusive platform. Ongoing collaborations with global universities, research organisations, and strong on-ground teams have sharpened our focus on developing technology that is unrestricted by gender, race, and economic status. Additionally, technology features like Inji – a digital wallet mobile app – allow residents to access their digital identities even in remote areas with low connectivity.
