Overview

  • Verification standards define how claims and credentials are validated in digital environments. This includes cryptographic verification of signatures, issuer validation, revocation checking, and schema conformance testing.

Technical Details

Verification Components

  • Signature Verification: Cryptographic proof validation
  • Issuer Resolution: DID and public key lookup
  • Revocation Check: Status confirmation
  • Schema Validation: Structure and format verification

Key Standards

  • W3C Verifiable Credentials verification algorithm
  • W3C DID Resolution specification
  • JSON Schema validation
  • Linked Data Proofs specification

Security Properties

  • Non-repudiation of issuance
  • Tamper-evidence detection
  • Selective disclosure support
  • Privacy-preserving verification (ZKP)

Applications

  • Metaverse access control
  • Age verification for content
  • Professional credential validation
  • Digital asset authenticity verification
