The problem VeriSecure solves

Students applying for admission to German universities often face a significant challenge due to the prolonged waiting period for their APS (Anerkennung von Studienleistungen) – the recognition of previous academic achievements. Can you imagine what the waiting time could be, for just verifying the authenticity of a degree certificate? It was horrifyingly 7 to 8 months, causing substantial delays in their academic journey. It not only caused financial stress in major households but also resulted in one year being wasted. Above all this, it leaves a psychological impact on individuals affecting their mental well-being.

The application is extended to employers hiring and running the background verification. In this way without involving the employee, more importantly, any third-party company especially for verification purposes. Instead, the company can verify the documents by requesting the access to university or issuing body directly. On receiving the access company or higher educational institution (accessing entities) can decrypt and view the document.

Thus, fastens the process, for both students and employees to avoid any third-party intervention cutting costs. This is proposed to become a Transforming Academic and Corporate Solution.
