The application implements the principle of zero-identity data collection, and image analysis is performed using edge computing technology to ensure that the original photos do not leave the device. Data transmission uses blockchain fingerprint verification, and all identification records are stored in the form of SHA-256 hash values. The original "knowledge distillation" technology can update the AI model without accessing the original image.
Privacy Watchdog displays data flow in real time, including: image feature vectors (encrypted transmission to identification server), location information (optional blurring to 1km range), and usage logs (automatically burned after 7 days). The system is ISO/IEC 27001 certified and undergoes penetration testing four times a year.
The architecture has been recognized as a "best practice case" by the EU Data Protection Board and has led to collaborations with nature reserves, where anonymously collected species distribution data has helped to discover three new record species. The Enterprise Edition also offers local private deployment options to meet the confidentiality needs of research organizations.
