Identity Management, SSI and Blockchain: A Review
Abstract: As an individual, in the social and digital world, the burden of managing multiple online IDs and passwords, while handling a host of documents e. g passports, driver?s licenses, Social Security/Aadhar cards and medical insurance cards is cumbersome. Identities both in the social and digital world requires security and privacy: managing these identities efficiently is called Identity Management. Once these identities established, they are produced, shown, send, verified in some way or the other for various processes in Government and non-Government purposes. Lately it is established that Blockchain technology has immense use to control over identities (Identity Management) with complete secrecy and privacy. Self-sovereign identity (SSI) is undergoing a transformative evolution, driven by the integration of blockchain technology and Facial Recognition Technology (FRT). This envisioned future entails a paradigm shift where unique facial features serve as the secure key for unlocking one's identity. Blockchain, functioning as a decentralized and secure repository, facilitates the storage of facial data. This convergence of SSI, blockchain, and FRT not only augments security but also streamlines authentication processes, reducing the reliance on conventional passwords and identification documents. It?s a future where individuals can seamlessly access their data, marking a significant advancement in secure and personalized identity management within an academic context.
