Traditional identity systems typically suffer from single points of failure, lack of interoperability, and privacy issues such as encouraging mass data collection and user tracking. Blockchain technology has the potential to support novel data ownership and governance models with built-in control and consent mechanisms, which may benefit both users and businesses by alleviating these concerns; as a result, blockchain-based IDMSs are beginning to proliferate. This work categorizes these systems into a taxonomy based on differences in architecture, governance models, and other salient features. We provide context for the taxonomy by describing related terms, emerging standards, and use cases, while highlighting relevant security and privacy considerations. -[Hyperledger Identity Working Group - Identity Standards](https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/IWG/Identity+Standards) +* [Hyperledger Identity Working Group - Identity Standards](https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/IWG/Identity+Standards) + +* [The Self-Sovereign Identity Stack by Oliver Terbu OSI](https://medium.com/decentralized-identity/the-self-sovereign-identity-stack-8a2cc95f2d45) + +![](https://imgur.com/6MLNgXal.png)\ +The Story of Open SSI Standards - Drummond Reed/Evernym SSIMeetup.org[ϟ] -[The Self-Sovereign Identity Stack by Oliver Terbu OSI](https://medium.com/decentralized-identity/the-self-sovereign-identity-stack-8a2cc95f2d45) ## Standards Bodies **_and other orgs worth keeping an eye on_** -I will begin with a listing of standards bodies, organizations and open processes, to which I'm paying attention (in addition to those previously gathered).
