Design requirement R1.2: Automation of manual processes

In the current KYC process, many steps involving the validation of data, such as checking whether an ID document's validity has expired, are conducted manually. Thus, the de facto automation of manual processes is another key requirement.

Source paper

This design requirement is proposed by Designing a Framework for Digital KYC Processes Built on Blockchain-Based Self-Sovereign Identity (Vincent Schlatt, Johannes Sedlmeir, Simon Feulner, Nils Urbach, 2022).

Objective 1 - Efficiency

To allow for increased process efficiency, three requirements had to be satisfied: end-to-end digital processing of relevant documents, automation of manual processes, and standardized exchange of eKYC documents.

Designing a Framework for Digital KYC Processes Built on Blockchain-Based Self-Sovereign Identity

The paper derives six design objectives (16 sub-requirements) for an SSI-based eKYC framework and demonstrates how blockchain-based self-sovereign identity can solve KYC challenges without violating data-protection regulation, deriving three nascent design principles that theorize blockchain's role for SSI: use blockchain only for public data, anticipate an ecosystem of various ledgers, and enable decentralization at the edge.
