Privacy for everyone, everywhere in an oversharing world

Adam Tsao, Founder
While Airside started with the goal of using mobile technology to drive convenience throughout the travel experience, over time we have come to realize that data privacy and security is the real customer need and it exists in industries far beyond travel. We are focused on expanding our capabilities to make sure they are suited for everyone, everywhere.
Identity needs to enter the digital age.
We have the core elements for a secure and easy mobile experience:
decentralized architecture, access to ground truth data for verification and the core principle of user-consent.
