Decentralized Identity Management System Using Distributed Ledger Concepts

The objective of this project is to design a decentralized identity management system where users control their own identity credentials. The system reduces reliance on centralized identity providers and enhances privacy and trust using distributed ledger concepts.

Study decentralized identity and self-sovereign identity principles.

Analyze drawbacks of centralized identity storage systems.

Design architecture for user-controlled digital identity wallets.

Implement decentralized identity registration mechanism.

Store identity proofs securely using cryptographic techniques.

Enable selective disclosure of identity attributes.

Implement verification workflows without revealing full identity data.

Test identity validation across multiple service providers.

Evaluate privacy, transparency, and scalability benefits.

Analyze potential risks such as key loss or misuse.

Document system advantages and technical limitations.
