Identity Management through a global Discovery System based on Decentralized Identities

Cryptography and Security 2022-12-06 v1

Abstract

Digital identities today continue to be a company resource instead of belonging to the actual person they represent. At the same time, the digitalization of everyday services intensifies the Identity Management problem and leads to a constant increase of users online identities and identity related data. This paper presents DIMANDS2, a framework capable of organizing identity data that allows service providers and identity issuers securely exchange identity related information in a privacy-enabled manner while the user maintains full control over any activity related to his/her identity data. The framework is format-agnostic and can accommodate any type of identifier (existing or new), without requiring from existing services and providers to implement and adopt another new global identifier.
