Hierarchical Sovereignty Management and Access Control based on Self-Sovereign Identity
Abstract
Self-sovereign identity is a type of decentralized identity technology and has been proposed to solve various problems of the existing public key infrastructure based centralized identity authentication service. In addition, the demand for a secure decentralized access control management (ACM) technique has increased according to the demand for such next-generation identity identification service. Accordingly, although various ACM techniques that can be applied to decentralized services have been proposed, most fall into the introductory stage of research. In this paper, based on the SOVRIN-based restructured verifiable credential concept proposed in our previous study, we provide a hierarchical sovereignty and ACM technique that does not use a smart contract.
