What mechanisms will the platform implement to prevent any kind of fraud or abuse? Any ideas?
What kind of abuse are you talking about? What do you have in mind? I can not understand how you can abuse the functionality of this application?
Academic Credentials which are stored digitally are stored on centralised servers. Centralized servers are prone to system downtime due to maintenance or malfunction, potentially limiting the access to academic credentials.
TrustED fully solves this problem and now a third party cannot make changes, edits or removals to the system, or the information present on the system.
TrustED utilizes secure cryptographic mechanisms to ensure the data (academic credentials and information) stored on the ecosystem is protected and kept secure. Cryptographic encryption mechanisms as well as the ability to choose who can and cant view your credentials gives control back to the academic credential recipient.
