At Procivis, we have developed distinct advantages that make our solutions stand out in the marketplace. These advantages deliver tangible benefits and address the real challenges organizations face with digital identity. Over the next several weeks, we'll explore the key advantages that set Procivis One apart in an article series. It is the unique combination of properties that sets Procivis One apart in the market:
Flexibility and Interoperability | Enterprise-Ready | End-to-End Experience | Privacy by Design | Scalable Performance | Deployment Freedom
Why is End-to-End essential?
A digital identity solution is only truly effective when it seamlessly manages the entire credential lifecycle—without gaps, without the need for additional components.
That is why we knew from the very beginning that we didn’t want to offer isolated components—such as a verifier, a wallet or a connector—but rather a comprehensive solution that covers the entire lifecycle of a credential. From issuance and management to verification, Procivis One ensures a seamless and fully integrated process. This approach guarantees that customers have access to a technology which covers the complete lifecycle in all environments, without the need to piece together different components from different sources.
How do we achieve end-to-end functionality?
Our architecture ensures seamless integration with a Core built in Rust:
At the heart of our architecture is our Procivis One Core — a robust and efficient engine that integrates all relevant standards, formats and functions essential for a digital identity system.
Our Core is written in Rust, a programming language known for its performance and security. This choice allows us to maintain a single, unified codebase across all environments (mobile, server, IoT), ensuring consistency and reliability throughout the entire ecosystem.
On the mobile side, our Core is integrated as an SDK, providing the same features as on the server. This ensures that mobile applications—such as wallets and mobile verifiers—can operate with the same level of functionality. Currently, our Wallet and Verifier are already available on app stores, and extending this to a mobile issuer is straightforward.
For credential issuance and verification on the server side (e.g. PID issuance in the eIDAS 2 context), we leverage our Core alongside our business backend. This approach ensures that all Core functionalities are accessible, including issuance, verification, and revocation. Additionally, organisations can implement server-based wallets, such as a company wallet, to manage digital credentials efficiently.
Thanks to Rust’s minimal system requirements, our Core can also be deployed in IoT environments, unlocking new possibilities in industries such as Automotive – Secure digital identities for connected vehicles, Retail & Payments – Identity verification at Point of Sale (PoS) terminals and other IoT Applications – Authentication in smart devices and embedded systems.
By maintaining end-to-end consistency across mobile, server, and IoT environments, Procivis One delivers a seamless, secure, and future-proof digital identity solution.
Why do we support so many standards?
For a single implementation, supporting multiple formats and standards may not seem necessary. However, when interoperability comes into play —such as in cross-border use cases—having native support for different credential formats becomes a major advantage.
With Procivis One, there is no need for third-party components to bridge gaps between different systems. Instead of integrating additional solutions or libraries that may complicate the architecture, our Core natively supports multiple standards and formats. This ensures seamless compatibility, greater flexibility, and a smoother user experience across different ecosystems.
By embedding this capability directly into the Core, Procivis One simplifies international and multi-system integrations, making digital identity truly universal and future-proof.
Do you have to use all components?
No, of course not. Procivis One is designed with modularity and flexibility in mind. While we offer an end-to-end technology, you have the freedom to choose only the components or features that fit your needs.
Our philosophy is “use what you need, build what you want”. The following graphic gives an overview about three possible options in using our technology.
With Procivis One, you stay in control—choosing exactly what you need to build a future-proof, scalable, and interoperable digital identity system.
