Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) Implementation Capabilities

Implementing Self-Sovereign Identity solutions requires a comprehensive set of skills and knowledge. Below is a detailed list of essential capabilities:

1. Interoperability and Standards Awareness

  • Knowledge of standards and protocols relevant to SSI, such as the W3C Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs).
  • Skills in developing solutions that are interoperable with different systems and platforms.
  • Active participation in international and local standard bodies and initiatives.

2. Understanding of DIDs, DIDComm, and OIDC4VC/OIDC4VP

  • Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs): Enable verifiable, self-sovereign digital identities, independent from centralized registries or authorities.
  • DIDComm: A protocol for secure, private communication using DIDs, facilitating trustable and encrypted message exchange.
  • OpenID Connect for Verifiable Credentials (OIDC4VC): Integrates verifiable credentials - issuance and presentation - into the OpenID Connect framework.

3. Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technology Expertise

  • Proficiency in blockchain technology for decentralized identity management.
  • Skills in smart contracts and various blockchain protocols.

4. Cryptography Knowledge

  • Expertise in cryptographic techniques for data security in SSI solutions.
  • Familiarity with encryption, digital signatures, and hash functions.

5. Identity and Access Management (IAM) Skills

  • Experience in IAM principles and technologies.
  • Knowledge of authentication and authorization protocols like OAuth and OpenID Connect.

6. Privacy and Compliance Awareness

  • Understanding of privacy laws and regulations like GDPR.
  • Implementing privacy-preserving technologies such as Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs).

7. Software Development and System Integration

  • Strong programming skills in relevant languages.
  • Publish API’s and SDK’s for integration with client systems
  • Experience in integrating SSI solutions with existing systems.

8. UX/UI Design for SSI Applications

  • Designing user-friendly interfaces for SSI applications.
  • Understanding user behavior and needs in digital identity management.

9. Project Management and Strategic Planning

  • Ability to manage SSI projects, balancing technical and business aspects.
  • Skills in strategic planning and stakeholder engagement.

10. Security and Risk Management

  • Knowledge of security risks in digital identity.
  • Conducting security assessments and audits.

11. Continuous Learning and Adaptability

  • Commitment to staying current with evolving SSI technologies.
  • Engagement in SSI community events and workshops.
