- Explore self-sovereign identity management with Hyperledger AriesPublication . FERREIRA, JORGE FILIPE CARVALHO; Azevedo, Isabel de Fátima SilvaSelf-sovereign identity is a decentralized means of possessing a digital identity in which the individual is in control and owns the information. Individuals can interact in secure, private transactions where they are in control of the data, choose when to share it, using decentralized identifiers and verifiable credentials. Some problems need to be addressed to a degree, such as the problem of how to establish interoperability between different identity systems, the security ramifications of managing decentralized identifiers, and the absence of research into the revocation of verifiable credentials without compromising privacy. A snapshot of trends, innovation, and concerns of self-sovereign identity is given in this report. The focus of this project was to keep these aspects in mind while ideating, designing, and prototyping a solution to a problem around identity. The research also touched on using one self-sovereign technology in an ongoing project. Investigating distributed identity and working with reliable verifiable credentials were part of this to make various systems communicate efficiently with each other.
