About SD-JWT VC
An SD-JWT (Selective Disclosure JSON Web Tokens) Verifiable Credential is a secure, privacy-enhancing digital credential based on the IETF standard. It allows individuals to share information with cryptographic proofs and selective disclosure, providing enhanced security and data minimization.
Our digital identity stack enables:
Issuers to create and sign SD-JWT VCs
Holders to receive, store & present SD-JWT VCs
Verifiers to parse and verify SD-JWT VCs

Benefits of SD-JWT VC
Privacy Preserving: Users can share only necessary information (e.g., age verification without showing full ID), which enhances privacy.
Tamper-resistant: SD-JWT VCs are cryptographically signed, making it easy to detect any tampering or unauthorized changes.
Easy-To-Verify: Verifiable Credentials are easy to verify due to their cryptographic underpinnings and machine readability.
Portable: Credentials can be securely stored in digital identity wallets across various devices.
