The Future of Digital Identity: Secure, Scalable and Open-Source.

MOSIP

Welcome to MOSIP! 🌍

What is MOSIP?

Modular Open-Source Identity Platform (MOSIP) is an open-source, open standards-based foundational identity platform designed to help countries build and manage their national ID systems. Anchored at the International Institute of Information Technology, Bangalore (IIIT-B), MOSIP enables governments to conceive, develop, implement, and own secure and scalable digital identity solutions.

Built with an API-first approach, MOSIP provides ID Lifecycle Management features, covering Identity Issuance, Identity Verification, and Identity Management. The platform is designed to foster global Digital Public Goods (DPGs) in digital identification and governance. By leveraging open-source technologies, MOSIP ensures scalability, security, and privacy, adhering to best industry practices.

MOSIP’s modular and adaptable architecture gives adopting countries full ownership and flexibility to customize the system to their needs. As a transparent and human-centric initiative, MOSIP encourages global collaboration, welcoming contributions from developers, technology partners, and research institutions worldwide.

Our global team of experts and advisors supports countries throughout the adoption and implementation of their digital ID systems, ensuring that they function as a common governance infrastructure for inclusive and secure digital transformation.
