內容簡介 "This book is a comprehensive roadmap to the most crucial fix for today's broken Internet." - Brian Behlendorf, GM for Blockchain, Healthcare and Identity at the Linux Foundation In a world of changing privacy regulations, identity theft, and online anonymity, identity is a precious and complex concept. Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) is a set of technologies that move control of digital identity from third party "identity providers"directly to individuals, and it promises to be one of the most important trendsfor the coming decades. Now in Self-Sovereign Identity, privacy and personal data experts Drummond Reed and Alex Preukschat lay out a roadmap for a futureof personal sovereignty powered by the Blockchain and cryptography. Cutting through the technical jargon with dozens of practical use cases from experts across all major industries, it presents a clear and compelling argument for why SSI is a paradigm shift, and shows how you can be ready to be prepared forit. about the technology Trust onthe internet is at an all-time low.
