How Blockchain Revolutionizes Digital Identity with SSI & DID A deep dive into Self-Sovereign Identity and Decentralized Identifiers for a secure digital future.
Understanding SelfSovereign Identity (SSI) Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) empowers individuals by giving them ownership of their personal data. Core principles include decentralization, which allows users to manage their identities independently of central authorities, and selective disclosure, enabling individuals to share only the information necessary for specific situations.
Understanding Decentralized Identifiers (DID) Decentralized Identifiers (DID) are user-created identifiers stored on a blockchain. They provide a secure and private method for individuals to manage their digital identities. DIDs ensure ownership and control, allowing users to share credentials selectively while maintaining their privacy and enhancing security in various digital interactions.
The Importance of Blockchain Decentralization – no single authority controls identity Immutability – records can’t be altered or deleted Privacy-preserving transparency – only hashes on-chain Trustless verification – peer-to-peer with crypto proofs Global interoperability across apps and borders
