There are many documents that we take for granted every day that are subject to document fraud.

Graduation certificates, mortgage documents, legal documents, employment contracts, medical certificates, insurance contracts, and these are just a handful of many documents subject to fraudulent activity around the world each year.

For example, unqualified doctors and surgeons have been trusted in the past to provide professional services to patients. These unqualified doctors who provided fake certifications to their employers to a

get a job, cost people their lives as a result. Another example has been when an insurance claim has been turned down, due to the insurer changing a policy without notifying the client.

VeriDoc Global has developed a verification system that intends to stop these fraudulent activities, with the use of Blockchain technology and smart contracts. Our unique solution allows you to verify that the document you are looking at, is the true document that was created by the issuer.

Fake documents are usually copies of genuine documents or illegally modified genuine documents made by unauthorised persons.

There is currently no way of quickly verifying if the document you are looking at is a true and correct document. With tools such as Photoshop and Canva readily available, editing a document has never been easier.

VeriDoc Global has developed a solution that involves embedding a QR code on a document with a unique digital hash inside the QR code. The hash holds a string of information that is then placed on the blockchain network for security, verification and most important end user validation.

Using a QR code reading app, you can scan the QR code on the document and the app will show you the true and correct document for you to compare and see if it is an original or a fake.
