Decentralized Identity Verification

Identity.com is an open source ecosystem providing access to on-demand, secure identity verification. Governed by a staking mechanism designed to ensure compliance and good behavior within the ecosystem, Identity.com grants users, requesters, and validators around the world access to low-cost reusable identity verification powered by CVC tokens.

Ecosystem

Smart Contracts and Blockchains are at the core of Identity.com. As the network grows, Civic will stop being the only player in the ecosystem and new Requesters (IdR), Credential Wallets (Wallet), and Validators (IdV) start entering the system and interacting independently in the marketplace.

How It Works

The User approaches a Requester to use a service or purchase a good. The Requester queries the Credential Wallet for the required PII attested by an acceptable Validator. Upon User approval in the Credential Wallet, the information is transferred to the Requester in exchange for access, and the Validator(s) that issued the attestation(s) get paid. A validation process occurs if no valid attestation is found in the Credential Wallet.

Blockchain

Ethereum enables the execution and transparent, immutable record keeping of transactions on the blockchain. We chose Ethereum over other platforms due to its popularity and Turing complete programing language.
