Avast has publicly announced its intention to be one of the first members of the OpenWallet Foundation (OWF). The OWF is the initial project of the newly created Linux Foundation Europe, an extension of the Linux Foundation, the most prominent platform to collaborate on open-source software hardware, standards, and data.
What are the objectives of the OpenWallet Foundation?
The OpenWallet Foundation has three core goals: create and maintain a solid free source engine to create top-of-the-line digital wallets and ensure interoperability between digital wallets. And three, to promote a level playing field across all sellers that sell digital wallets. The OWF community will be focused on creating an open-source application platform that other companies and organizations can use to create their wallets. The wallets will be able to support many different use instances, from identity to digital keys, all with the goal of being feature-compliant with every digital wallet currently available.
Protecting digital freedom is at the core of Avast key mission. Collaboration, interoperability, and open ecosystems are essential to the digital future we envision, especially in the digital identity space. It is a great opportunity to join this community from the start to positively influence the security and privacy of the OpenWallet Foundation and the open-source software it creates. Avast is proud to be one of the founders of the OpenWallet Foundation,” said Drummond Reed, Director of Trust Services at Avast, a NortonLifeLock company.
