Identification and information exchange system and registry

A system for secure digital transactions, comprising:

• (a) a memory;
• (b) at least one processor coupled with the memory and configured to perform the steps of:
• (1) creating, encrypting, and digitally signing a message;
• (2) creating an exchange record on a registry, the exchange record including a first user identifier, a second user identifier, the encrypted message, and a first user digital signature;
• (3) validating the exchange record;
• (4) decrypting the message;
• and
• (5) creating a verification record on the registry, the verification record including the second user identifier, the first user identifier, the encrypted message, and a second user digital signature.

At least one non-transitory computer readable storage media having executable instructions stored thereon that when executed by a computer processor perform the steps of:

• (a) creating, encrypting, and digitally signing a message;
• (b) creating an exchange record on a registry, the exchange record including a first user identifier, a second user identifier, the encrypted message, and a first user digital signature;
• (c) validating the exchange record;
• (d) decrypting the message;
• and
• (e) creating a verification record on the registry, the verification record including the second user identifier, the first user identifier, the encrypted message, and a second user digital signature.

A system for completing and maintaining secure digital transactions, comprising:

• (a) at least one database having a registry for storing exchange and verification records, corresponding exchange and verification records representing a completed transaction between users.
• (b) at least one processor coupled to said at least one database;
• (c) at least one exchange record on said registry, said exchange record created by said processor and including a first user identifier, a second user identifier, an encrypted message, and a first user digital signature;
• and
• (d) at least one verification record on said registry, said verification record created by said processor and including the second user identifier, the first user identifier, the encrypted message of said exchange record, and a second user digital signature.
