Securing Digital Identities with Blockchain and Smart Contracts

Abstract

he identity management model based on Self-Sovereign Identities, unlike classic models such as the centralized or federated model, allows users to have full control of their identity, without depending on external entities. A key element in a Self-Sovereign Identities-based system is the Verifiable Data Registry, where proofs and signatures of user credentials are securely recorded. This paper will present a Verifiable Data Registry that has been developed based on blockchain technology and implemented in an identity manager for a Data Space in the agri-food sector. In addition, the Smart Contracts developed to implement the necessary functionalities within the Self-Sovereign Identities context will be explained.
