BankID Integration for Amnesty Sweden

Project Overview:

I developed and integrated the BankID authentication service into the Amnesty Sweden portal, ensuring a secure and streamlined user experience. This project involved creating a robust system for user authentication and identity verification using BankID, a widely trusted solution in Sweden for secure digital identification.

Project Details:

Secure Authentication and Identity Verification:

By implementing the BankID service, I enabled Amnesty Sweden’s portal to securely authenticate users and verify their identities. This integration ensures that only verified users can access sensitive services, contributing to a high level of trust and security in the platform.

Bank Account Verification:

Implemented functionality to retrieve and verify bank account numbers, allowing for safe and efficient financial transactions within the portal. This ensures that users’ financial information is handled securely, meeting the necessary data protection standards.

Technology Stack:

The integration was developed using Handlebars and jQuery, creating a seamless and responsive experience for users. These technologies allowed for smooth interactions between the front-end interface and the BankID service, ensuring that the authentication process was both user-friendly and secure.

Impact and Benefits:

Enhanced Security:

The BankID integration significantly improved the security of Amnesty Sweden’s portal, ensuring that sensitive user data is protected and that only verified users can access restricted services. This not only helps to build user trust but also aligns with Amnesty’s commitment to protecting individuals’ privacy and security.

Streamlined User Experience:

The solution provided a seamless and intuitive authentication process for users, allowing them to quickly verify their identity without compromising security. This balance between ease of use and security is critical for maintaining user engagement and trust in the platform.

Note: This project was completed during my time at Knowit, a leading consultancy firm in the Nordics, specializing in digital solutions, management, and innovation. Knowit partners with clients across various industries to drive transformation and create impactful solutions.

Conclusion:

This project highlights my ability to implement secure, user-focused solutions that meet high standards of data protection. By integrating BankID with Amnesty Sweden’s portal, I contributed to a more secure and efficient platform, enhancing both the user experience and the organization’s ability to protect sensitive information.
