1. An edge-computing method, comprising:
scanning, using a sensor of a computing device, a physical feature of a user of the computing device;
generating, based on the scan of the physical feature, a biometric signature corresponding to the physical feature;
generating user data based on inputs detected via one or more input devices of the computing device, the inputs comprising information on the user;
retrieving a device identifier corresponding to the computing device;
encrypting, based on the biometric signature and the device identifier, the user data to generate encrypted user data;
generating a first digital key granting access to the encrypted user data and transmitting the first digital key to a first computing system;
receiving, from the first computing system, a security token corresponding to the user data, the security token indicating that at least a subset of the user data is valid;
storing, at the computing device, the encrypted user data and the security token as part of a data package that is secured and validated in a storage device of the computing device, wherein attempts to alter the data package invalidate the security token;
generating a second digital key corresponding to the data package; and
transmitting the data package and the second digital key to a second computing system to provide the user a service.
