We will discuss digital identity management, specifically focusing on Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) and blockchain technology. They explore the evolution of digital identity, highlighting the limitations of centralized and federated identity systems, such as vulnerability to breaches and lack of user control. The potential of blockchain-based SSI is examined, detailing its core components like Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs), which aim to provide enhanced security, privacy, and user ownership of personal data. While acknowledging the benefits, the sources also address challenges like technical hurdles, adoption barriers, and the need for standardization and collaboration to fully realize SSI's potential in combating issues like identity theft and fraud.
