Verifiable Credentials
A Verifiable Claim is a qualification, achievement, quality, or piece of information about an entity’s background such as a name, government ID, payment provider, home address, or university degree.
A Verifiable Credential is a tamper-evident credential that has authorship that can be cryptographically verified. One or several Verifiable Credentials can be used to build Verifiable Presentations, which can also be cryptographically verified. The claims in a credential can be about different subjects.
(quote: W3C Verifiable Claims working group)
Sphereon DAML Integration for Verifiable Credentials
We have integrated our W3C-specification compliant APIs with DAML, enabling the issuance and verification of Verifiable Credentials and Presentations within DAML workflows.
As governments are moving fast and furious into promoting and using Verifiable Credentials as a digital method to easily verify identities, authorizations, data exchanges, etc., this opens up many great business case opportunities for DAML projects.
Think about Known Traveller Identities, Certificates of Origin, Essential Worker permits, Job Certifications, Medical licenses, KYC or Background checks, and many more claim-based business opportunities.
