Microsoft Digital IDentity


Last couple of years, Microsoft has invested in incubating a set of ideas for using blockchain and other distributed ledger technologies to create new types of digital identities—identities that are designed from the ground up to enhance personal privacy, security, and control.

Digital IDentity (DID) will be a first-class citizen of the Microsoft identity stack.

Vision
  • Every user needs a digital identity they own, that can securely and privately store all their personal data.
  • This self-owned identity must be intuitive and convenient to manage, and provide complete control over how identity data is accessed and used.

Business Benefits
  • Deeply engage with users while minimizing privacy and security risks
  • Transact with customers, partners, and suppliers over a unified data protocol
  • Improve transparency and auditability of your business operations

Microsoft's Whitepaper of DID is available at https://query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft.com/cms/api/am/binary/RE2DjfY
