If you have ever bought a name-brand product online, you know how hard it can be to verify that the product is real. Even in retail stores, you can’t always guarantee that what’s on the shelf is the real thing. And that’s just new – what about when you buy something second-hand at a thrift store or on eBay? It’s a complete gamble whether it’s a genuine product or a knockoff. That’s where Veritise comes in, with a platform to help you verify the authenticity of a product.
What is Veritise?
Veritise is a new platform that is a blockchain-based service that will revolutionize data collection and identity verification. The platform will provide a secure and immutable database for companies and individuals to store data securely. From curriculum vitae with verified references to trusted online reviews to business card verifications and even a way to confirm fast personal identity, Veritise is building two-way communications between consumers and manufacturers via a QR code scans system set up to provide instant registration of product warranties.
One example mentioned was purchasing a Gucci bag from a 3rd party retailer. Using the Veritise system, you can verify both the authenticity of the bag with a “tamper-proof private key” that comes along with the product and also verify who the current owner of the product is. The important note is that whomever you are purchasing this product from (whether it be a retailer or a manufacturer) needs to be partnered with the company in order to be part of this process.
How does it work?
When data is entered into the Veritise Platform, it is stored in a block. Each block is then chained to the previous block, creating a secure and tamper-proof record of data. The Veritise platform can be used by companies and individuals to store data such as customer information, product warranty, and more. This is where the tamper-proof private key comes in. The key is placed on the blockchain and is tied to the owner. Once the product is purchased, transfer of ownership takes place and can be verified on the platform at any time afterward.
Who is Veritise for?
The Veritise platform is for any company or individual who needs to securely store data. This includes, but is not limited to, businesses that need to verify customer identity, collect customer data, or confirm product warranty. It is also for individuals who want to be sure that the products they are buying are authentic and that their personal information is secure.
Why Veritise?
Veritise is partnered with some of the world’s leading companies such as Gucci, Samsung, and L’oreal and more partnerships are on the horizon. This means that businesses and individuals can trust the company to provide quality verification and authentication services. It is also the only company to offer a blockchain-based platform that can be used for data collection and identity verification.
Summary
Veritise is available now for partners and users. To learn more about the technology and how to verify products, head to the company’s website.

As a company, you’ve got data. Every company has data – and a lot of it. But, trying to troll through everything that’s ever been created in order to turn it into something useful can be a challenge. One employee in the finance department has created a spreadsheet that contains the exported revenue broken down per employee. Another employee in marketing has broken the same numbers down by department. 
Whether you are new to the crypto game or have been involved since the beginning, protecting your investment from theft needs to be your top priority. Every year, billions of dollars worth of crypto assets are stolen from online wallets at exchanges and on personal computers and phones. The only way to trust protect your assets is to keep them in a place where the outside world can’t access them – cold storage. 
For decades, we’ve been promised flying cars. In The Jetsons, we were told that flying cars were not new and had been around for years. But, the show takes place in 2062 – only 40 years from now. So, where are the flying cars? We’ve seen a few at CES in the past few years, but 
If you’re like most people, you probably dread the idea of going to the optometrist. It’s always a hassle to find time in your schedule, and then you have to deal with trying on all those glasses until you find the perfect pair. 
If you are a small or medium-sized business, you know how difficult it can be to put together all of the data you need to get the most out of tax law. There are tons of credits available to you, but you must know what qualifies so you can avoid a costly and time-consuming IRS audit. You can pay a tax professional to constantly monitor your activities to look for things like R&D tax credits, but that might cost the company more than what it will get back in credits. Now there’s REV by Leyton to help you out.
When you’ve got a newborn baby, it can be really difficult to keep track of all of the things you need to do. You’ve got to feed them, with a bottle, breastfeeding, or a combination of the two. More importantly, you need to track whether or not you’ve actually done it. You’ve also got to keep track of when they sleep, diaper changes, and even medications. You can keep track of it in a book, but that requires carrying another thing around with you. 
The last two years have created a lot of new scenarios for the world. Particularly, the business world has had to adapt to a lot of adjusted scenarios. Much work has begun to be from home, rather than in offices. This forced IT to change the way they think of their corporate networks to allow for greater variability, while also protecting data. But, the biggest part of industries to be affected by the altered way of thinking has been events, like CES. Our good friend Steve Winter from 
People are taking more notice of the quality of the air around them. Whether it be pollutants from vehicles in the city or illness spread through the air, what we breathe in is more important than ever. This is where 
The Internet of Things creates a lot of benefits for individuals and businesses. You can control your home with your voice, or even from your phone while away. You can check on the status of package deliveries, appliances, and even work projects. But, IoT also creates a lot of challenges for developers – transmitting and processing the data collected from these devices. That’s where On-Site product and AI-Fields from TEIXON comes in.
