I've begun exploring and becoming more familiar with the decentralized nature of digital identity. Open processes for standardization, are critical components for enabling a system for identification that's both decentralized and widely interoperable.

  • A Taxonomic Approach to Understanding Emerging Blockchain Identity Management Systems NIST CYBERSECURITY WHITE PAPER (DRAFT) BLOCKCHAIN IDENTITY MANAGEMENT APPROACHES JULY 9, 2019

    Identity management systems (IDMSs) are widely used to provision user identities while managing authentication, authorization, and data sharing both within organizations as well as on the Internet more broadly. 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

The Self-Sovereign Identity Stack by Oliver Terbu OSI

This page requires a lot of attention.

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). From there, I can integrate and expand, as able.

Why Engage with Standards?

too many people complain about problems but dont step to Fix It!. There are certainly a lot of flawed standards but they make interoperability possible not perfect but possible. If you havent used them then you have no right to complain that they are too complex, too simple (even in the same standard) or too domain specific or any of the other rants and raves that go on.

If youre willing to put up with a lot of work for incremental improvements then step up and join a standard. Whether that is a (relatively) fast moving standard group like OASIS (www.oasis-open.org) or a slower but more international group like ISO you will learn. Youll also benefit from working with experts. These experts donate their time and are more than happy to provide ideas, guidance, and leadership.

Who Are the Identerati? - ForgeRock

Youre familiar with digital identity standards like OpenID Connect, OAuth, and User-Managed Access, fundamental elements of privacy and security on the internet. But have you ever wondered how they came to be? A lot of work on these protocols went on (and goes on) behind t...

Building Blocks for a New Architecture

After looking at the many different digital platforms and mechanisms: centralized, decentralized, proof-of-work, proof-of-stake, the list goes on, I have concluded that all of these new platforms boil down to fulfilling three core societal functions: value, identity, and status, underpinned by consensus.

Schema

  • Schema — a collaborative, community activity with a mission to create, maintain, and promote schemas for structured data on the Internet. Schema.org vocabulary can be used with many different encodings, including RDFa, Microdata and JSON-LD. These vocabularies cover entities, relationships between entities and actions, and can easily be extended through a well-documented extension model. Over 10 million sites use Schema.org to markup their web pages and email messages. Many applications from Google, Microsoft, Pinterest, Yandex and others already use these vocabularies to power rich, extensible experiences."
