Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI)

Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) is a digital identity model that allows individuals to control their personal information without relying on central authorities. Instead of using traditional IDs issued by governments or organizations, SSI enables users to create, manage, and share their identity data securely and privately, typically using blockchain technology. This empowers individuals to decide what information to share, with whom, and for how long, enhancing privacy and security. SSI can streamline various processes, such as online verifications, while reducing the risk of identity theft and fraud.
