The organisers of the 10th Silver Bullet Risk Management Conference used the Velocert platform to issue verifiable Proofs of Attendance, demonstrating how verification and transparency enhance trust across business, compliance, and professional development.
At one of Slovenia’s leading events dedicated to security, cyber, and information risk, the organisers selected Velocert as the platform for issuing verifiable Proofs of Attendance to nearly 100 participants, including board members, business leaders, and risk professionals from the country’s most prominent organisations.
The choice was deliberate. Risk management relies on verifiable information. In today’s digital economy, where most professional interactions and achievements occur online, the inability to instantly confirm who did what, when, and where has become a real business risk.
Recent data illustrates the scale of the challenge:
- Fake credentials form a multi-billion-dollar global industry, eroding trust in education and recruitment. (Nature, 2024)
- Employment fraud is rising, with widespread misrepresentation across sectors. (EY, 2025)
- CV falsification is common: 18 % of UK applicants admit to lying, and 60 % of CVs contain errors. (The Guardian, 2025)
Unverifiable claims expose organisations to fraud, compliance failures, and reputational damage. Every unchecked record adds uncertainty and weakens stakeholder trust.
By adopting Velocert, the conference demonstrated a practical way forward. Each digital credential can be securely stored in a digital wallet or shared to Europass, allowing instant confirmation of authenticity.
The 10th Silver Bullet Risk Management Conference thus underscored a simple truth: in modern business, transparency and proof are not optional, they are the foundation of trust.
