Lockstep Technologies - "Safety in numbers"

Lockstep Technologies researches and develops novel privacy and identity solutions using personal security devices.

Lockstep Technologies' R&D has focussed initially on smartcards, internet anonymity, and Card-Not-Present (CNP) payments fraud. Our goal is to enable radically better safety for an individual's identifiers and personal data.

We believe we can stop identity theft, in almost all its forms, as it is known today.

Our flagship solution is "Stepwise", which encapsulates personal identifiers in smartcards and similar devices, allowing individuals to keep their online personae separate and to transact anonymously.
