Our Products
Become a Qualified vLEI Issuer (QVI)
Provenant has taken the complexity out of the GLEIF governance framework and underlying technology for the vLEI, with a suite of tools that enable smooth, fully compliant vLEI issuance without the burden of a lengthy and expensive development cycle.
- Manage issuance of Legal Entity, OOR, and ECR credentials through a simple and intuitive user-interface
- Ensure compliance with the EGF, including integrated NIST Level 2 identity assurance
- Enable the holding, presentation, and revocation of credentials via easy-to-use web-based wallets
Secure, tamper proof, financial filings
Using the security and power of chained verifiable credentials, Provenant has created a simple solution to use the vLEI to sign and verify XBRL filings. Just upload your iXBRL document, select signatories, assign facts to individuals, then have those signatories review and apply their digital signatures.
- Completely UI driven, no need to understand XBRL
- Document repository of past and current documents ready for signature
- Final signed document, color coded for easily identifying signatory and multi-signed facts
Join the future of organizational passwordless login
Provenant’s zero-trust, browser-based, web authentication application puts the power of the vLEI to work. Organizations establish the role credential to access digital resources, issue to authorized representatives, and no longer have the expensive overhead of username/password management with the benefit of added security.
- Minimal “verify” server-side deployment
- Plugin available for most popular browsers
- Verifiable chained binding: root of trust → organization → individual to resource needing accessed
