Problem
Organizations in sectors such as healthcare, critical infrastructure, and government face increasing phishing attacks and credential theft, making password-based authentication and traditional access controls unreliable and risky. Physical access control and secure digital communication also require strong identity verification that can operate offline and protect biometric data from exposure.
Solution
Crayonic offers EU‑made wearable identity wallets that combine crypto‑biometric authentication, secure embedded microprocessors, and machine‑learning‑driven key management to provide passwordless, multi‑factor login and physical access. The devices operate offline, generating zero‑knowledge proofs of identity without transmitting raw biometric data, thereby resisting phishing and credential‑replay attacks. Integrated secure communication modules enable encrypted messaging and e‑signing directly from the wearable. The solution adheres to high‑assurance standards such as FIDO L3 and Common Criteria, allowing deployment in regulated environments where strong assurance of identity is mandatory. By delivering a frictionless user experience through a dedicated, certifiable hardware token, Crayonic replaces vulnerable smartphones and legacy badge systems with a unified, tamper‑resistant identity platform.
Target Audience
Primary customers are enterprises, healthcare providers, and government agencies that require high‑assurance authentication for digital services, physical premises, and secure communications.
