Jerusalem, 8 November, 2026 (TPS-IL) — Israel has unveiled a national digital identity strategy establishing a unified single sign-on system and a mobile digital wallet to streamline access across government and private sectors.
Presented during National Cyber Protection Week, the initiative aims to eliminate multiple passwords, reduce bureaucracy, and combat online fraud.
Expanding upon the current government portal serving 5.5 million registered users, the system will integrate commercial entities—including banks, insurers, healthcare providers, and telecommunications firms—allowing direct customer identity verification without requiring physical ID scans or separate accounts.
An accompanying national digital wallet will store state-issued licenses and certificates on smartphones for secure online and in-person presentation.
Officials emphasized that private account data remains separate, with the platform functioning solely as a secure identity verifier.
