Back in May, on the TechCrunch Disrupt Berlin stage, Myki announced a major partnership with self-sovereign identity application Blockpass; combining the power of identity sovereignty and cloudless password security that is Myki.

Myki targets three user verticals:

The "Myki Password Manager & Authenticator” for consumers is a mobile application that allows users to seamlessly and securely store and manage passwords, credit cards, ID cards and secure notes. Myki allows users to login to accounts using biometric authentication such as touch ID and Face ID.

Myki's enterprise offering "Myki for Teams” gives administrators full visibility and control over their company’s access management.

Myki for Managed Service Providers is a web portal that allows MSPs to manage the passwords of their clients in a secure, streamlined and scalable manner.

Global spending on cybersecurity products and services are predicted to exceed $1 Trillion over the next five years, from 2017 to 2021. Myki is well positioned to address the security and identity management needs and concerns of consumers and businesses alike.

Quote from Co-Founder & CEO Antoine Vincent Jebara: "Our mission for the next two years is to build the infrastructure required on all levels to keep growing fast, the way we have been for the past 12 months, and become a world leader in decentralized identity management."

Myki Co-Founder and COO Priscilla Elora Sharuk said: “We are firm believers that online security and data privacy is not a privilege, it is a right, and that is why at Myki, we empower our users with the tools to securely manage their digital identity.”
