Vietnam Launches NDAChain for National Data Security and Digital Identity

Vietnam has launched NDAChain, a new blockchain network that allows only approved participants to join. The move is aimed at locking down Vietnam’s government data. 

About NDAChain

The network is built by the National Data Association and managed by the Ministry of Public Security’s Data Innovation and Exploitation Center. It will serve as the primary verification layer for tasks such as supply-chain logs, school transcripts, and hospital records.

According to experts, NDAChain is based on a hybrid model, relying on a Proof-of-Authority mechanism to ensure only authorized nodes can verify transactions. It also adds Zero-Knowledge-Proofs to protect sensitive data while verifying its authenticity. According to officials, NDAChain can process between 1,200 and 3,600 transactions per second, a statistic that aims to support faster verifications in logistics, e-government, and other areas. 

Two new features

The networks have two main features: NDA DID offers digital IDs that integrate with Vietnam’s current VNeID framework, allowing users to verify their IDs online when signing documents or using services. On the other hand, NDATrace provides end-to-end product tracking via GS1 and EBSI Trace standards. Items are tagged with unique identifiers that RFID chips or QR codes can scan, helping businesses prove verification to overseas procurers and ease recalls in case of problems.
