Diagram illustrates the participation of three parties in a verifiable credentials interaction. This solution automates verification of identity credentials and claims.
The verifier is an organization that requests proof and upon receipt verifies that claims in credentials satisfy requirements.
The user receives and approves the request for credentials obtained from issuer and presents to verifier. The credential claims are cryptographically signed with the user’s private key.
The issuer is an organization that attests to claims and grants digitally signed credentials to the user.
An ecosystem of organizations, workplaces, governments, schools, institutions, and individuals act as trusted issuers and verifiers for verifiable credentials, with users granting permission and managing access through their digital wallet.
