title : "Self Sovereign Identity (SSI)"
|
||
excerpt: >
|
||
Christopher did a great job outlining the history of internet identity standards, and introduces 10 Principles of Self-Sovereign Identity, currently in revision.
|
||
|
||
However, considerable additional material has been created on the subject since then, including some helpful criticism on the principles.
|
||
|
||
Resultingly, I've begun collecting as much source grade material on Self Sovereign Identity, as possible, organizing it here.

This directory was born from [WebOfTrustInfo/self-sovereign-identity](https://github.com/WebOfTrustInfo/self-sovereign-identity), *the original* SSI repository.
|
||
|
||
In my opinion, the best overall article on the subject is still Christopher Allen's [The Path to Self-Sovereign Identity](https://github.com/WebOfTrustInfo/self-sovereign-identity/blob/master/ThePathToSelf-SovereignIdentity.md). Christopher did a great job outlining the history of internet identity standards, and introduces [10 Principles of Self-Sovereign Identity](https://github.com/WebOfTrustInfo/self-sovereign-identity/blob/master/self-sovereign-identity-principles.md), currently in revision.
|
||
|
||
However, considerable additional material has been created on the subject since then, including some helpful criticism on the principles. Some of initial thoughts have been organized in [evolution-of-ssi](/literature/self-sovereign-identity/evolution-of-ssi/).
|
||
|
||
Then I realized that I should make a more complete survey of the subject, if I want to be thorough. So now I'm collecting as much SSI info as I can, and organizing it here. Once I've completed a review of existing literature on the subject, I'll put it into a google shared doc to encourage further participation.
