Identity Market: Ringier introduces new login after OneLog failure
Ringier is introducing a new user login system for its Swiss media platforms, marking the final departure from the failed joint login infrastructure OneLog. The OneLog project, launched in 2021 by Ringier and TX Group, was intended to provide a shared login across Swiss publishers, but was abandoned after a severe cyberattack and the withdrawal of key partners. Ringier's new login will unify access across its Swiss titles, including Blick, Beobachter, and Bilanz. The move follows the earlier adoption of a new login by 20 Minuten in January. Ringier's CEO Marc Walder was the first president of the OneLog joint venture.
The failure of the Swiss publisher joint login infrastructure and Ringier's move to a proprietary login is a significant event for Swiss digital publishing, but limited to the Swiss market and not industry-shifting globally.
