Identity usually conjures thoughts of authentication and various federation schemes that purport to make authentication easier. We call this a "connection" since DIDs are cryptographically based and thus provide a means of both parties mutually authenticating. And when a digital relationship ends, it should really be over.

A kind of digital smash and grab of sensitive information such as the encryption keys created to protect sensitive transactions on a site like Amazon, or your bank with no way to trace any of it back to you.

It implies we need a simple encapsulating protocol (a way of agreeing on and transporting things). Consider the following diagram that shows Alice receiving a credential from her employer and proving information about her employment to her bank. Alice has exchanged private DIDs with both her employer and the bank.

She might also use it at partner websites (like the benefits provider) to provide shared authentication without federation (and it's associated infrastructure). For example, suppose she is applying for a loan and her bank, Certiphi, who wants proof that she's employed and has a certain salary. Certificate of authenticity (e.g.

It implies we need a simple encapsulating protocol (a way of agreeing on and transporting things). Because DIDs are cryptographic artifacts tied to public-private key pairs, this exchange provides the agents with the means to perform mutual authentication and create an encrypted channel.

Some of its uses are in telecoms, banking, e-commerce, computer telephony and instant messaging. Jonathan wanted to see if he could find a known vulnerability in Mosquito, but right away he encountered a few challenges. So it was really easy to exploit, and it was really, really dangerous and it was really really widespread.

And this was like the first time ever we actually found the reference to this bank. But to retrieve the certificates for the decryption, the agent first needs to take an extra precaution and supply a self-signed transport certificate that would be used to encrypt the certificates bundle. We were able to authenticate to the cluster.
