Jan 29, 2018 - Blockchain will enable organizations requiring specialized talent and capabilities to obtain better information about potential contractors and partners than traditional recruitment methods. With a prospective employee’s consent, an employer will have access to verifiable information uploaded, stored, and managed on a highly secure, distributed database. This paper discusses how blockchain supports HR and talent procurement processes such as hiring or contracting, insuring diversity and privacy, onboarding, training and development, and managing benefits.

Jul 31, 2019 - This project examines how blockchain supports user centric identity systems, through such technological primitives as public key cryptography, hashing functions, zero-knowledge proofs, and homomorphic encryption. Its authors set nine benchmarks—technical specifications, governance, security, privacy, recovery and revocation, user experience, data controls, and degrees of decentralization and self-sovereignty—by which prospective users and ecosystem partners might assess different identity services and compare them to each other and the status quo. The purpose is to help users map their goals to the technical features necessary for achievi...
