As businesses increasingly rely on digital identity verification, Verifiable Credentials (VCs) provide a secure, interoperable, and tamper-proof method of proving identity.

Block Identity’s W3C-compliant Verifiable Credentials enable organisations to issue, verify, and manage trusted digital identities across a wide range of modern business applications.

With VCs, users can prove their credentials without exposing unnecessary personal data, ensuring privacy-first authentication that aligns with regulatory requirements.


This approach enhances security, reduces compliance burdens, and streamlines verification processes for businesses, governments, and financial institutions.

Privacy-Preserving Verification

What It Is: Users can verify their credentials without revealing excess personal information.

Block Identity’s privacy-first authentication minimizes data exposure, reducing the risk of identity theft while ensuring compliance with global regulations. Users maintain control over their information through Selective Disclosure, sharing only necessary data fields instead of full documents.


Zero-Knowledge Proofs enhance privacy by verifying credentials without exposing actual data, while Revocable Credentials allow organizations to issue credentials that can be dynamically updated or revoked, preventing outdated or fraudulent use and strengthening trust in digital identity systems.

Interoperable & Standards-Based

Fully aligned with W3C Verifiable Credentials and decentralized identity standards, ensuring seamless adoption across different industries and regulatory frameworks.

Block Identity enables organizations to import Verifiable Credentials (VCs) from other W3C-aligned issuers while also creating custom VCs that fully comply with W3C standards.


Additionally, our Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) support empowers users to own, store, and manage their credentials securely, enhancing interoperability between traditional businesses and decentralized applications (dApps).

Tamper-Proof Credential Issuance & Verification

Digital credentials are issued, stored, and verified using cryptographic security, making them impossible to forge or manipulate.

Block Identity’s tamper-proof credentials eliminate fraud risks, enhance security, and remove reliance on outdated paper-based verification. Blockchain-backed credentials ensure authenticity and transparency, preventing forgery. Instant verification accelerates processes, reducing operational costs.


With secure digital wallets, users can store and manage their credentials, maintaining full control over their verifiable identity while building trust between organisations and users.
