2019-03-06	IBM Identity	IBM	Smart identity and access management solutions for the hybrid, multicloud enterprise. Powered by AI. Backed by IBM Security®.	IBM joined DIF because we believe it will take open community and standards to achieve the vision of self-sovereign identity. For example, members of DIF are focused on the establishment of an open web platform standard within the W3C standards organization called Decentralized Identifier (DID). A DID will provide a standard global resource naming scheme for identity. There is a global Internet standard for naming resources called a uniform resource identifier or URI. When you type https://www.ibm.com into your browser, a URI ensures you always end up at IBM’s website. Similarly, we need one standard to identify an individual, as well.	companies	image teaser /images/ibm-header.webp /images/ibmteaser.webp	false	companies/ibm/	https://decentralized-id.com/companies/ibm/	private-sector/ibm/ id-initiatives/ id-initiatives/ibm/ private-sector/	Companies	DIF SecureKey Hyperledger Indy Sovrin Steward Sovrin Foundation Mooti IBM Verifiable Credentials DID	2023-02-20	true
