WISeKey Launches WIS.WATCH the Trusted Key to Your Data

GENEVA, February 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

    WIS.WATCH, a revolutionary technology mutation has been created by WISeKey for a
completely new way of interaction between a human being and a watch allowing the watch to
become the key to the smartphone. The first NFC watch that sends a Secure Digital Identity
via NFC to the WISeID app and activates the login process on the smartphone.

    Basically you use WIS.Watch as the KEY for the smartphone and without the watch the
Mobile App with your personal data and cloud access cannot be used or activated, providing
enhanced security. WIS.WATCH connects instantly with your smartphone and launches WISeID
to protect your Personally Identifiable Information (PII). In the future you can use the
cryptographic key that is stored on the watch for many other usages such as activation of
your smartphone, unlocking doors and electronic locks at home and at work. Tap your watch
to your smartphone or tablet to unlock your app or pay for goods with NFC enabled
contactless payment systems.

    Thanks to WISeKey ID NFC technology, the WIS.WATCH can be used as a unique personal
key identifier and trusted device to access your smartphone, applications, and personal
data and secured cloud storage. WIS.Watch and WISeID together offer a unique experience of
interconnected objects and strengthens your security while simplifying the user
experience. With your connected WIS.WATCH your personal data, documents, and passwords
remain safe and can also be securely encrypted and saved in the cloud.

    The combination of WIS.WATCH and WISeID app allows you to securely backup your data
online. This is handy should your smartphone ever get lost or stolen. You can configure
your WISeID app so that after several failed attempts to access your secure data, the key
will be wiped and your data erased. You can restore the data from your secure cloud store
into a new smartphone or desktop WISeKey using the backup system activated by your
WIS.WATCH.
