Description (French)
Sans les repères physiques sur lesquels nous comptons lors de rencontres réelles pour établir la confiance, l'évaluation en ligne devient impossible sans une charge de recherche fastidieuse. Trust Science, dont le siège social est situé à Edmonton, en Alberta, utilise les informations accessibles au public pour comprendre la fiabilité des personnes. Un pointage de confiance numérique ou un pointage d'index social est une mesure de profil, qui examine la fiabilité d'un individu sur la base d'informations en ligne accessibles au public. Le projet de Trust Science comprend des méthodes brevetées, qui examinent les données actuelles parmi de nombreuses sources de données, fournissant ainsi un aperçu non seulement du passé, mais du futur d'un individu.
