Sismo Overview
- What is Sismo?
Sismo is a platform that enhances user privacy and data control in the Web3 space using zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs). This allows users to safely store their personal information in a "Data Vault" and share it selectively with applications. The sharing is done via Sismo Connect, a specialized sign-on system built for crypto services. This setup ensures that users can confirm and share their data without exposing private details, making online interactions more secure and user-friendly.

Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) are cryptographic methods that allow one party to prove to another that a statement is true without revealing any additional information beyond the validity of the statement itself. This technology is particularly useful in situations where privacy and security are crucial, enabling verification without compromising sensitive data. ZKPs are widely used in blockchain and privacy-enhancing technologies to ensure transactions and interactions are secure and private.
A Data Vault in the context of web services like Sismo is a secure storage system where users can collect and manage their personal data. This vault ensures that sensitive information is kept private and secure.
