  • The Time for Self-Sovereign Identity is Now Kim Hamilton Duffy, Learning Machine (Now Hyland Credentials) Oldie but Goodie by Kim Hamilton Duffy from when she worked at Learning Machines

    Technically, Verifiable Claims are claims made about a “subject” (identified by a digital identifier such as a DID) that are rendered tamper proof through digital signatures. The authenticity of digital signatures may, in turn, be established through issuer identifiers, which may also be expressed as DIDs.

  • The Journey of Decentralized Identity: Where Its Been and Where Its Going 2022-07-14 Trinsic

    Our goal has been to completely abstract away the complexity of the ever-changing landscape so organizations can focus on the important stuff—what product to build, and how to take it to market. Teams shouldnt have to “pick winners” and wager what to build on. Their products should be interoperable with multiple ecosystems. Thats what Trinsic is providing, out-of-the-box.

DIDs

W3C Press Release - Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) v1.0 becomes a W3C Recommendation worth reading to see who contributed comments (and notice who didnt)

For individuals in particular, DIDs can put them back in control of their personal data and consent, and also enable more respectful bi-directional trust relationships where forgery is prevented, privacy is honored, and usability is enhanced.

Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs): The Fundamental Building Block of Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) Drummond Reed, Chief Trust Officer at Evernym, will explain in our second Webinar "Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) - Building Block of Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI)" giving us the background on how DIDs work, where they come from and why they are important for Blockchain based Digital Identity. https://www.slideshare.net/SSIMeetup/decentralized-identifiers-dids-the-fundamental-building-block-of-selfsovereign-identity-ssi 2018-05-09

Verifiable Credentials

  • What Are Verifiable Credentials? And How Can They Build Digital Trust? 2022-02-01 Salesforce

    Verifiable credentials and verifiable credential management technology offer a direct and secure channel between an organization and its stakeholders. Learn how they bring control over digital identity and build trust with organizations from health credentials to college degrees.

    Authority Does Not Require Centralized Power

    As mentioned in my previous article, the trouble with centralization is that data is stored in a database. Once breached, a database can yield a treasure chest of information to be sold on the dark web.

  • Essential Services Delivery coordination using Digitally Verifiable Credentials

    This repository contains the build, deployment, and application configurations needed to pull a number of separate applications into a single environment and deploy them as a group of interrelated services.

  • Verifiable Credential Authentication with OpenID Connect (VC-AuthN OIDC)

    The integration this document defines is how holders of verifiable credentials can leverage these to authenticate with parties. Note, how the holder became in possession of supported verifiable credentials is out of scope for this integration.

    Like any new technology there is adoption required of new concepts, this particular integration aims to provide an easy integration path that allows parties to start leveraging the power of verifiable credentials for user authentication in a non-disruptive fashion. This is achieved by extending the vastly popular OpenID Connect family of specifications.

RDF

  • Technical Report on the Universal RDF Dataset Normalization Algorithm 2020-10-19

    The goal of this technical report is to review the Universal RDF Dataset Normalization Algorithm (URDNA2015) for correctness and to provide satisfactory evidence that possible issues with URDNA2015 have been considered and dismissed. We do not lay out the algorithm in its considerable technical detail here, but refer the reader to the proposed technical specification 1 [Longley], a set of proofs by Rachel Arnold and Dave Longely [Arnold], and a reference implementation in Python [DigitalBazaar] - Bill Bradley

  • URDNA2015 Implementation Question Daniel Petranek

    I've instrumented the rdf-canonicalize library so I can inspect the order of execution, and it appears that what differs between my implementation and the Javascript one is the order of the permutations. The spec doesn't say how the permutations should be ordered, and my intuition is that the order does indeed matter - though I'm happy to be corrected if I'm wrong.

So, here is my question(s):

  • Does the order of the permutations matter?

  • If so, what order should they be in?
