Hello everyone! It’s a pleasure to work for you all.

By way of introduction, our team at Internet Identity Labs is on a mission to eliminate friction from the internet while constraining ourselves to absolute privacy and absolute security, and have introduced a few previews over the last few months of what we’re developing with NFID.

At the heart of NFID is Internet Identity, which we see as absolutely critical to the privacy and security of our online identities. Our goal for participating in this working group is to assist in improving core Internet Identity functionality without compromising privacy or security.

We’ve already worked with the community to submit PRs for two improvements, and hope these sessions will help prioritize more. So far we’ve:

  • Added support for Apple Passkeys (in Dfinity review)
  • Introduced improved recovery phrase protection from attack (in implementation review)

Looking forward to working with Bruce and the AstroX team on organizing the community effort towards improving the lifeblood of the future of the world’s online identities!

Team, find here agenda and notes for today’s session at 5pm CEST.

Hi,

I missed the announcement of the constitution of these groups, I just read your session notes. My question is did you mention the possibility of developing or evolving the system towards a SSI (Self-sovereign identity) model?

An identity and credentials can then be shared with other platforms SSI. Using verifiable credentials, identifiers, etc. Or do you think an SSI should use Internet Identity and build a layer on top ?

I think this is becoming a very interesting (hot) topic at the moment.

Thank you for your attention

@rbolog have you seen https://nfid.one?

I think @dostro and team have built what you’re describing.

Thanks for the link, I didn’t know about this solution. I’ll look into it further. At first reading, it doesn’t seem to me that this is an SSI. It represents only a part of it (one of 7 basic building blocks).

The following animation gives a good overview.

7 building blocks (Book: Self-Sovereign Identity Alex Preukschat, Drummond Reed)

  • Verifiable credentials (aka digital credentials)
  • The trust triangle: issuers, holders, and verifiers
  • Digital wallets
  • Digital agents
  • Decentralized identifiers (DIDs)
  • Blockchains and other verifiable data registries
  • Governance frameworks (aka trust frameworks)
