Abstract
Methods and systems for creating a digital association are provided. The method includes obtaining a first user-generated item comprising identifiable features of a first user and a second user. The method also includes obtaining a second user-generated item comprising the identifiable features of the first user and the second user. The method also includes cross-confirming that the first and second user-generated items are valid to verify the digital association.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method for creating a digital association, comprising:
- receiving association data comprising identifiable features of a first user and a different second user, the association data created through at least a first certified device of the first user and a different second certified device of the second user;
- cross-confirming by validating, through both the first certified device and the second certified device, whether the association data is valid to verify the digital association of identifiable features of the first and second users;
- in response to the validating, generating the digital association between the first user and the second user by digitally signing the identifiable features when the association data is determined to be valid;
- and
- storing the digital association on a public ledger comprising a database.
A system for creating a digital association, comprising:
- a memory storing multiple sequences of instructions;
- and
- a computer hardware processor configured to execute the sequences of instructions which, when executed, causes the computer hardware processor to perform:
- receiving association data comprising identifiable features of a first user and a different second user, the association data created through at least a first certified device of the first user and a different second certified device of the second user;
- cross-confirming by validating, through both the first certified device and the second certified device, whether the association data is valid to verify the digital association of identifiable features of the first and second users;
- in response to the validating, generating the digital association between the first user and the second user by digitally signing the identifiable features when the association data is determined to be valid;
- and
- storing the digital association on a public ledger comprising a database.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium is provided including instructions that, when executed by a computer hardware processor, cause the computer hardware processor to perform a method for creating a digital association, the method comprising:
- receiving association data comprising identifiable features of a first user and a different second user, the association data created through at least a first certified device of the first user and a different second certified device of the second user;
- cross-confirming by validating, through both the first certified device and the second certified device, whether the association data is valid to verify the digital association of identifiable features of the first and second users;
- in response to the validating, generating the digital association between the first user and the second user by digitally signing the identifiable features when the association data is determined to be valid;
- and
- storing the digital association on a public ledger comprising a database.
