Self-Sovereign Identity NFC Bridge

SSI-NFC bridge aims to implement NFC smartcards with secure elements as physical SSI identifiers. This will enable SSI for both online & offline identification, authorization and access management, with decreased dependency on the use of smartphones

ProjectID

eSSIF-IOC-36

Acronym

SSI-NFC-Bridge

Additional Info

The bridge will be blockchain and did-method agnostic to allow for easy integration of SSI smartcards in any SSI solution. The smartcards hold an NFC microchip with an EAL6+ grade secure element for authentication and signing with their embedded DID and can be used for sovereign storage and selective disclosure of verifiable credentials.
Example use cases may include private health records (including corona test and vaccination status), eID cards with eIDAS compliant signatures, or enterprise employee authorisations, access management and transactions.
