* [Matching Identity Management Solutions to Self Sovereign Identity Solutions](https://www.slideshare.net/TommyKoens/matching-identity-management-solutions-to-selfsovereign-identity-principles)
  > 5.2 The Short List\
  > Following our knock-out assessment, there remain a total of nine identity man-agement solutions that match the three defined Self-Sovereign Identity Princi-ples. These are: — Blockauth — Cryptid — DIMS — Sovrin (Evernym) — IPv8 (Delft) — IRMA — Selfkey / KYC-chain — OpenID — uPort\
  > 6 Requirements short list\
  > Having determined which identity management solutions fit the initial three requirement, we perform an in-depth assessment of the identity solutions on the short list. To do so, we create a new set of requirements, and match each solution to this new list of requirements.
