How QR Document Verification Guarantees Authenticity
Token validation enabling embassies, employers, and authorities to instantly verify employment agreements while preserving strict GDPR privacy.
- Cryptographic Hashing: Every document receives an unalterable SHA-256 hash.
- Consular Access: 24/7 public endpoint `/verify/{token}` accessible without login.
- GDPR Compliant: Masked initials prevent identity theft or public PII leaks.
1. Token Assignment
When an audited employer issues a contract or work permit confirmation, EuroLink generates a unique cryptographic token embedded directly onto the PDF header as a scannable QR code.
2. Public Ledger Lookup
Scanning the QR code connects to `eurolinkcareer.com/verify/{token}`. The verification engine queries the encrypted database and displays real-time status (Authentic, Expired, or Revoked).
3. GDPR Minimization
Public verification results show non-sensitive metadata (reference code, issuing employer, masked candidate initials, issue date). Sensitive documents remain locked inside the identity vault.
