下月起，施行“新身份证”

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the launch of the National Network Identity Authentication Public Service Platform by six government departments in China, aimed at reducing personal information leakage while allowing users to verify their identities online without disclosing sensitive personal data. The platform will be implemented starting from July 15, 2025 [1]. Group 1: Platform Overview - The National Network Identity Authentication Public Service Platform is based on legal identification documents and aims to provide a way to prove identity while preventing personal information leakage [1]. - The platform is designed to reduce the collection and retention of personal identity information, achieving a "usable but invisible" effect for identity data [1]. - The platform is already operational, allowing users to apply for and use a network number and network certificate through a dedicated app [1]. Group 2: Implementation Details - The management measures specify that for internet services requiring user identity verification, users can register and verify their identities using the network number and network certificate [1]. - The platform is expected to reduce over 20 million instances of identity information leakage risk daily [1]. - The app for the platform can be downloaded from application stores, and users need a mobile phone with NFC functionality to apply for their network identity [3]. Group 3: User Guidance - Users must follow specific steps to apply for their network identity, including selecting their identification type and completing face recognition and mobile number binding [3][21]. - Minors can also apply for network identity but require assistance from a guardian who has already obtained a network identity certificate [16][21]. - The application process includes setting a password and confirming the identity through various verification methods [10][26].
