The problem ZKForms - Zero Knowledge Forms solves

Problem:
In a digital world rife with privacy breaches and distrust, our platform addresses the urgent need for secure and private data handling in online surveys and forms. Existing platforms often lack robust security measures, leading to data vulnerabilities and user apprehension. By harnessing Web3 tech and cutting-edge authentication methods like zkProofs, we ensure an airtight shield around user data, fostering trust and confidence. Our solution fills the gap by offering a secure haven where users' privacy is respected, paving the way for a more trustworthy and engaging online experience. Winning this hackathon would establish us as leaders in safeguarding data integrity and user privacy, setting the bar for secure online interactions.
Individuals or organizations can utilize this system for:

  • Sensitive Data Collection: Industries dealing with confidential information (healthcare, finance) can collect sensitive data without compromising individual privacy.
  • Compliance-Driven Surveys: Adhering to strict regulations (GDPR, HIPAA), ensuring respondent anonymity and data security.
  • Research & Academic Surveys: Researchers can securely gather data without exposing individual responses, maintaining confidentiality.
  • Confidential Feedback: Organizations seeking honest feedback or employee opinions can ensure privacy while evaluating insights.
    How it Enhances Existing Tasks:
  • Privacy Assurance: It enables a secure environment where respondents can share confidential information without fear of exposure.
  • Efficient Survey Design: With flexible survey logic and branching, users can create complex surveys tailored to specific responses, enhancing data quality.
  • Data Integrity & Compliance: By leveraging zero-knowledge proofs, it ensures data integrity and compliance with privacy regulations, reducing legal risks.
  • Streamlined Analytics: The results dashboard presents aggregated data, allowing creators to derive insights without compromising individual's privacy.

Challenges we ran into

  • Developing a user-friendly, dynamic form that adapts to individual business users' needs posed challenges in collecting and storing data efficiently within our decentralized framework
  • We faced difficulties in fetching uploaded files within Lighthouse, impacting our decentralized storage mechanism and data accessibility
  • We faced delays in retrieving the 'logged-in' status from Anon Aadhar due to network lag, affecting the seamless authentication process within our decentralized system
