About this blog

Digital verification services make it easier and faster to prove who you are and things about yourself digitally.

The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) is responsible for enabling the adoption of digital verification services across the UK economy.

For accessing public services via GOV.UK, the Government Digital Service is developing GOV.UK One Login. You can find out more about GOV.UK One Login on the GDS blog.

For proving your identity and accessing services in the wider economy, DSIT is making it possible to use digital verification services built in the private sector. We are ensuring that these services are safe, secure, and trustworthy by introducing clear standards, governance and oversight, underpinned by legislation.

If you'd like to find out more about our work, then the following blog posts are a pretty good place to start.
