Ukusebenza kwe-Human Verification ne-Identity Crisis ku-AI Era nge-Blockchain Technology

Ngokusho 2025Imperva Bad Bot IsilinganisoNgokuvamile, okokuqala eminyakeni, ukubhuka kwe-bot ye-automated ibhizinisi lihlola umsebenzi wabantu, nge-51% yebhizinisi yebhizinisi lithunyelwe ama-bots. I-boot yokuqala yinkimbinkimbi yinkimbinkimbi yinkimbinkimbi lithunyelwe yi-AI. A ukubhuka ukuthi ama-threats e-automated zihlola ngesivinini esizayo, futhi ama-bots eqinile zihlanganisa 37% yebhizinisi yebhizinisi wonke.

I-sofistication ye-threats eyenziwe ngama-75% yabasebhizinisiDeepfake Izimpendulo, kanye nezinhlangano zithintela ububanzi we-$450,000 ngalinye yokuthintela kwe-AIUkukhangisa. Ama-attackers manje zihlanganisa ama-API, zihlanganisa i-business, futhi zihlanganisa ama-flame ye-fraud usebenzisa ama-bots ezihlangeneyo, ezihlangeneyo ezakhelwe nge-AI ubuchwepheshe. Ukwenza lokhu kuyinto ingcindezi engaphansi yokufinyelela ama-attackers, okuholela ekwandeni kwama-attack ye-bot encane.

Ukuphumelela kwe-digitalization yehlabathi yenza imiphumela emikhulu ekubunjweni kwezimpendulo ze-human authenticity. Head of Public Sector ku-Socure ne-White House ex-cybersecurity ne-digital advisor, Jordan Burris, ekhukhwini isitimela esivela e-SocureI-Dock LabsUkukhangisa ukuthi phezulu kuka-$ 500 billion – isibalo esithathwe ngenxa yokuncintisana kwezixhobo zokuphathelisa – isathwe ku-identity fraud, deepfake scams, kanye nemiphumela ye-KYC.

Lezi zinkinga zayo zangempela ukuthi ukuhlanganiswa kwe-AI ukuthuthukiswa ne-blockchain ubuchwepheshe ivela i-catalogue entsha ye-identity solutions. Kulesi nqaku, siza kuhlukanisa i-identity ye-digital kanye nenkqubo yayo.

Digital Identity Breakdown

I-ID ye-digital identity iyinhlanganisela ye-online ye-individual noma i-organization usebenzisa idatha kanye nemikhiqizo yokuqinisekisa ukweseka kanye nemisebenzi yayo emkhakheni ye-digital. Ezinye izakhiwo ze-identity ye-digital zihlanganisa Imininingwane ye-Personally Identifiable, Imininingwane ye-Personalization, neImininingwane.

Ukucaciswa okuphezulu mayelana nemiphumela ku-truth, trust, ne-integrity kubaluleke nge-rise ye-AI-generated content kanye ne-deepfake sophistication eminyakeni edlulile. Abantu kanye nezinhlangano ezinemibuzo zisebenzisa lezi zindlela yokubacindezela ama-identities, okwenza emhlabeni indawo ebuthakathaka ngokuvamile.

Izixhobo ezifana ne-Veo 3 entsha ye-Google - i-state-of-the-art i-AI video generator enikezela ukwakha ividiyo encane enezingeni eliphezulu ebonakalayo ezivamile - zihlanganisa futhi ibhizinisi-revolutionizing. Kodwa-ke, kufanele ucwaningo isikhathi esithile ukuthi ama-actors ezinhle angakwenza nge-access ye-tech. Ezinye imiphumela emibi eyenziwa kusuka ku-akhawunti ebonakalayo ebonakalayo e-AI njenge-akhawunti zihlanganisa:

• Defamation and reputation damage

• Blackmail and extortion

• Political interference and espionage

  
  

Ku-Web 3, uhlelo oluthile yokulawula ikhwalithi iye yenza ingxubevange ebonakalayo enikezela ukwandisa izivakashi ze-Sybil emkhakheni. I-Sybil isivakashi kuyinto ingozi yebhizinisi lapho abacwaningi abacwaningi zihlanganisa ikhwalithi ebuthile ukuze uthole ukulawula ngaphakathi kwenethiwekhi. Umthengisi usebenzisa le ikhwalithi ebuthakathaka ukufumana izinzuzo ezingabuzekiyo kunezinto, ikakhulukazi ku-airdrop farming. Ngokuvumelana ne-Dropstab, ku-2024, i-$15 billion ye-tokens ziye zitholakalaI-AirDropngama-cryptoprojects ku-"i-users" - abantu abaninzi abekho-proof of identity. Lokhu kokungaphelelanisa inkulungiselela i-airdrop processes ku-risk of face widespread manipulation via bots and fake accounts (Sybils).

Evolution of Digital Identity: From Password to Proof of Personhood

Ngokuvamile (re: ku-Web 2), izindlela ze-identity njenge-username/password combinations, i-TFA (i-two-factor authentication), kanye ne-Document-based verification zihlanganisa izixhobo eziphambili zofuzo ze-identification online. Nakuba zisetshenziselwa kakhulu, zihlanganisa okungaziwa futhi zihlanganisa kakhulu ukuthi zihlanganisa izimpendulo nezinkinga. Izinzuzo ezifana nezimpendulo ezincinane, ukusetshenziswa okungenani kwe-password, izivakashi ze-phishing, ukuxhaswa kwamakhasimende, i-SMS-based 2FA, ama-documents ebutholwe noma zitholwe, kanye ne-document falsification zihlanganisa izixhobo zofuzo ezingu-digital.

I-biometric systems yasungulwa njengesisombululo kumemibuzo. Futhi nangona amanye ama-biometric databases zibonisa ukuhlolwa kwama-identity, zihlanganisa izivakashi eziningi ezifana nezimonyo ze-privacy, ama-security vulnerabilities, kanye nama-limitations zobuchwepheshe. Ngenxa yokuzonwabisa kwayo, ama-databases ze-biometric ziye ziye ziye zihlanganisa ama-hackers, okuholela ku-"honeypots".

Ukukhishwa kwe-cryptography kunikeza izixazululo ezintsha zokubuyisa ikhwalithi. I-Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) kuyinto isibonelo. Kuyinto ubuchwepheshe ye-cryptographic esetshenziselwa ukubuyekeza ikhwalithi ngaphandle kokubuyekeza ulwazi mayelana nemikhiqizo ngokuvamile. Le ubuchwepheshe isetshenziselwa imisebenzi zamathemathemikhali emangalisayo ukuqinisekisa ukuthi umsebenzisi akufundisa kuphela inguqulo se-truth ngaphandle kokufumana ukufinyelela kwedatha eziyisisekelo. Namhlanje, i-ZKPs ikhiqiza ukuchithwa, ukuphucula ukhuseleko kanye ne-privacy emkhakhemikhali ezivamile.

Blockchain-based Identity

Iziqu ze-individual zokusebenza ngokuvumelana ne-identity yayo ye-digital ne-access to services that were previously inaccessible to users without formal identity proof. Lokhu kunokwenzeka nge-use of blockchain technology eyenziwe nge-principles ezifana ne-security, decentralization, kanye ne-verifiability.

I-blockchain inikeza umzila wokubonisa umphakathi kumadokhumenti abalandeli abalandeli, enikezela ukufinyelela kwebhanki wokubacindezela, zemfundo nezinye izinsizakalo. Ukukhiqizwa kwe-blockchain ubuchwepheshe ku-identity yedijithali kunikeza ukunciphisa ukuhlangabezana, ukuphucula ukhuseleko, ukuphucula ukhuseleko lwe-privacy, futhi ukwandisa ukufinyelela kwezinsizakalo ezibalulekile.

Umzekelo olungcono we-blockchain-based identity protocol kuyinto i-Humanity Protocol. Nge-over 8 million identities verified, i-140,000 transactions ngosuku, kanye ne-$1.1 billion Fully Diluted Valuation (FDV) ngaphambi kwe-mainnet, i-Humanity Protocol iye emkhakheni yokuqinisekisa umzekelo we-blockchain. Izinkqubo ze-DID (Decentralized Identity) efana nezi zihlanganisa izinsizakalo ze-self-sovereign when it comes to identity, control, and management of digital identities without depending on centralized authorities.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-Projects njenge-Humanity Protocol, ukhangela ukuhlolwa kwama-palm-based, ukhangela ukuvumelana kwezobugcisa kanye nokuphathwa kwedatha okungenani asebenzayo njengezinzuzo eziyisisekelo.

Real-World Applications and Use Cases

I-cost of identity fraud has increased significantly in recent years. NgokuvamileUmhlahlandlelaby Javelin Strategy & Research no-AARP, ngo-2024, abantu abadala Americans abalandeli i-$47 billion ku-identity fraud and scams. Lokhu kwandisa i-$4 billion phezu ku-2023. Kukho i-ecosystem ye-solutions ne-adaptations yokufolisa le ngxaki. I-global digital identity solutions market share iyatholakala ku-$41.63 billion ku-2024 futhi iyatholakala.Ukulungiselela ukufinyelela$ 159.93 billion ku 2031, CAGR ka 21%.

Okuphambili le nentengiso yentengiso zihlanganisa i-blockchain-powered identity protocols. I-Identity protocols isebenzisa ubuchwepheshe eziphambili ze-blockchain ezifana ne-ZKPs ne-DIDs ukufinyelela ukuhambisana kwe-Know Your Customer/Anti-Money Laundering (KYC/AML) ngaphandle kokuvimbela idatha ebonakalayo ze-customer. Lezi zentengiso zithuthukisa ukuhlolwa kwama-identity nezinye idatha ngaphandle kokuvimbela noma ukunikela imininingwane yomsebenzisi. Lokhu kunikeza idatha enhle futhi ibhekwa nezimfuneko zokulawula.

Kuyinto ingxenye lapho inqubo efana ne-Humanity Protocol ibonisa - inqubo enezinhlangano nezinkampani zezinkampani ze-genomics kanye nezinhlangano zokuvumelana ezivela ekwenzeni izinhlelo zokuvumelana ezihambelana nezidingo ze-KYC nokuvumelana nokuvumelana kwamakhasimende ngokusebenzisa i-ZKPs.

Enye isicelo esisebenzayo ye-blockchain-powered identity protocols kuyinto yayo lokuphuma kwinkqubo ye-digital governance. Lezi ziprotokolls zenzelwe ukuhlangabezana ne-Sybil emakhemikhali yayo yokuphefumula, ukunikeza probity ku-Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) ukuxhumana. Wonke abantu zihlanganisa, wonke umuntu unemibuzo, futhi wonke umuntu iyahlaziywa. Lolu hlelo linikeza imodeli yokudlulisa i-token emangalisayo kumahhala we-airdrops ne-reward sharing.

Future Implications

Ngokusho umbhalo we-Netguru, izindleko ze-AI zehlabathiukufinyelela $ 1.3 trillionku-2030, ukusuka ku-150.2 billion $ ku-2023. Lokhu ukucindezeleka okucindezeleka kwezimali ze-AI ibonise ukunambitheka okungenani ukulawula okucindezeleka abasebenzisi wezinto ezivamile ezivela ku-AI-generated bots kanye ne-synthetic identities, kanye nokuvimbela abasebenzisi.

Izinhlelo zomthetho, njenge-European Digital Identity Regulation (EUDI) kanye ne-eIDAS Regulation, zihlanganisa ukuguqulwa kwezimo zomthetho ze-digital identity kanye ne-data protection. Lezi zomthetho zihlanganisa ukwakha isakhiwo se-digital identity esigcwele esihlanganisa ne-General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) ngokuvumelana kanye nokuvumelana.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, ubuchwepheshe ezifana ne-AI, i-IoT, ne-Metaverse zinezidingo izinhlelo zokusebenza okuphakeme. Nakuba ku-verification ye-humain iyadingeka ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukubaluleka kwe-AI ngokushesha, amadivayisi we-IoT zinezidingo yokubhalisa ukuze ku-interoperability kanye nokhuseleko. I-Metaverse, njengezindawo ye-virtual efakiwe, inikeza ukuphathwa okuphakeme kwe-identity okukhuthaza ukuxhumana komphakathi, ukunciphisa ukuxuba kanye nokupholisa ukhuseleko kwabasebenzisi.

Conclusion

Njengoba i-CAPTCHA nezinye izindlela ze-online authentication, ukuvalwa kwamanani kubangelwa ukwandiswa kwe-AI kanye nezidingo sokukhula ukwahlukanisa phakathi kwamanani ne-bots. Njengoba i-AI-generated content kanye ne-AI-powered bots kubangelwa kakhulu, izindlela ezivamile zokuvimbela i-spam kanye ne-fraud ayidingi. Ukuvalwa kwamanani kuyinto ingxenye ebalulekile yobuchwepheshe enikezela ukugcina integrity yezinhlelo zebhizinisi, ekutholeni ukwanda kwe-AI-generated scams kanye ne-desinformation.
