Abstract
A system for credential authentication includes and interface and a processor. The interface is configured to receive a request for authorization to access from an application. The processor is configured to determine a set of credentials that can enable authorization to access; generate a proof request challenge; receive a proof response; determine that the proof response is valid based at least in part on information stored in a distributed ledger; generate a token; and provide the token.
