Self-Sovereign Identity Basic Principles

High-Level Criteria Sub Goals Description Credebl Source
Foundational Property Existence A self-sovereign identity must enable a user to encode her characteristics digitally. ✅ Credebl supports digital encoding of user characteristics through DIDs and VCs https://docs.credebl.id/en/intro/intro-to-ssi/
Autonomy The model leverages decentralized domains where no singly party can assert its control. This enables a user to create/manage as many self-sovereign partial identities as required without relying on a specific provider 🟠 Functions are managed by a SSI wallet (organisations may integrate their own wallet, Adeya, a wallet created by the same company is also available) https://docs.credebl.id/en/guides/architecture/
Ownership Only the creator of the identity can claim ownership. Model enforces that assertions from the providers are released only by the owner. 🟠 Organisations can setup their own SSI Web Wallet based on a multi-tenant shared Aries agent. https://docs.credebl.id/en/guides/architecture/
Access Users must have unrestricted access to their identity information. 🟠User registration process through email-based verification. FIDO Passkey for phishing-resistent user verification. https://docs.credebl.id/en/guides/architecture/
Single Source If any provider-asserted claim is only released via a profile leveraged by a self-sovereign identity as advocated previously, the user can act as the single source of truth regarding her identity.  inherited from the protocol and the trust assumptions on the credential https://docs.credebl.id/en/guides/architecture/
Security Property Protection Well-protected with the latest cryptographic mechanisms.  (See technical evaluation below)
Availability Any identity data in a decentralized domain will be readily available and accessible as long as such domain exists. 🟠Ledger agnostic. Dependent on liveness of ledger used/ chain deployment . (see below on decentraliazation) https://docs.credebl.id/en/guides/architecture/
Persistence Data in a decentralized domain will be persistent as long as the domain exists. 🟠Ledger agnostic. Dependent on the ledger used/ chain deployment . (see below on decentralization) https://docs.credebl.id/en/guides/architecture/
Controllability Property Choosability User control over when and to whom identity data is released. 🟠 Supports selective disclosure features https://docs.credebl.id/en/intro/platform-features/
Disclosure Ability to selectively disclose attributes. ✅ Supports selective disclosure features (but NOT bbs+ and nothing on the roadmap) unsure if uses zkps
Consent Data released to third parties only with user consent. ✅  See data privacy in table below https://app.digitalpublicgoods.net/a/10902
Flexibility Property Portability Identity data must be portable across different platforms. ✅ Uses VCs and adheres to various standards (see below) https://app.digitalpublicgoods.net/a/10902
Interoperability Designed for maximum interoperability with other systems. ✅ .Designed for interoperability with W3C specifications such as Decentralized Identifiers (DID) and Verifiable Credentials (VC), along with contributions from the Decentralized Identity Foundation (DIF), Trust over IP Foundation (ToIP), as well as the collaborative efforts of the Hyperledger Indy and Aries open-source initiatives. https://docs.credebl.id/en/intro/what-is-credebl/
Minimisation Minimize disclosure of identity data. ✅ Agent creates a separate wallet database for each organization wallet in order to keep the data isolated. Platform uses NATS for message-driven data exchange between CREDEBL microservices. https://docs.credebl.id/en/guides/nats/
Sustainability Property Transparency The system must be transparent to all involved entities. ✅ Credebl is open-source https://app.digitalpublicgoods.net/a/10902
Standard Based on open standards for maximum portability, interoperability, and adoption. ✅ Based on open standards DID, VC, DIF, ToIP, W3C* see above https://app.digitalpublicgoods.net/a/10902

Decentralized Identity Foundation Criteria

| --- | --- | --- | --- |

ZK Criteria

| --- | --- | --- | --- |

| On-chain Deployment Requirements | Requirements for deploying the solution on-chain. | Signatures verification If using BBS+, depending on the curve implemented, it should be possible to implement the verification logic for the EVM, though I didn’t see any on-chain verifier at the moment, could lead to research and implementation on our side. For CL signatures it should also be possible but again no verifier implementation found for the EVM.

Data storage The protocol is currently using Polygon PoS, to post unique user identifiers (DID identifiers) in a decentralised registry, as well as the schemas for VCs (optional). | https://github.com/hyperledger/anoncreds-clsignatures-rs |
