The Value of Trust
Portage brings privacy-focused technology to the trusted digital economy.
Value of Trust
Trust has very real value – in both dollars and sense.
One of the consequences of digital business is the accumulation of personal, private data. The ability to collect and maintain ongoing consent from data owners requires particular attention.
Measuring the value of trust can mean different things to different people, but the one thing that trust does bring when it arrives is the belief that you are in the right place working with the right people.

Government and Public Sector
Positive and trusted interactions with government have never been more important. Silos of access and multitudes of passwords for different services are a cumbersome reminder of our past. In this new era in digital service delivery, citizens want easy, secure access and they want the ability to consent to or revoke use of their personal information. Governments also have a clear mandate: to ensure that the person requesting information is who they say they are and that as they serve their citizens, they are maintaining their own policy governance while providing the best citizen experience and that they are timely in the delivery of services.
Education
COVID forced post-secondary institutions into digital transformations, and two imperatives have been at the heart of success– putting students at the center of digital services delivery and enabling trust. Adoption of a student-centric approach—versus one that is organization- or process-centric— enables institutions to more fully anticipate student needs. Creating stages along the way to implement processes feedback from students and other users can be a highly beneficial way to ensure the path taken is the right one. Building of trust within your digital transformation project is a critical as the trust you build within your student body.
Healthcare
Leveraging technology in digital healthcare transformation has shifted from a future possibility to one of immediate need. The COVID-19 imperative for healthcare: deliver more care to more patients while minimizing in-person contact. Even outside of the pandemic the aging of the baby-boomers will create a further need for managing online health services delivery. Spiking demands on the health care system make a stronger case than ever for leveraging automation and secure digital service delivery to lighten the load on human resources all while respecting privacy needs of individuals.
