Issue, verify, and revoke identity credentials for subjects and devices.

Hedera's credentials follow the decentralized identifier and verifiable credentials standards under development at the W3C.
Credentials on a decentralized network can give users greater control over when and to whom their identity attributes are shared.
Hedera Consensus Service can scale to support high-volume device identity use cases.
Verifying a new hire's credentials and issuing prescriptions is a long and typically manual process. With a signed credentials from the certifying body, this overhead can be drastically reduced.
IT systems are in a state of constant flux, as can be the workforce that maintains them. Workforce access to software and workplaces can be better, more transparently controlled and governed with credentials enabling authorizations.
Registering degrees and certifications via Hedera can give students greater control over how those qualifications are presented, whilst still giving universities and colleges appropriate rights to revoke when necessary.
Hedera Consensus Service and the open DID specification provides developers with the tools to manage credentials through their lifecycle in a secure, standards-based and privacy respecting manner.
With hashgraph, transactions reach guaranteed finality in seconds. This low latency could be critical if a credential were to be revoked.
The Hedera Consensus Service creates a trusted and secure log of the key moments in a credential's lifecycle.
With Hedera Consensus Service, neither credentials nor related metadata is stored on the nodes of the Hedera mainnet.
Credentials capture identity attributes, skills, and qualifications and so determine authorization to software and systems. Key moments in a credential's lifecycle can be recorded using Hedera Consensus Service to add transparency and certainty for each stage.

Identity is fundamental to how we interact, both with each other and with the applications we use each day. Read more in this infographic.
The Hedera DID specification is a great starting point to manage credentials. See what's possible in the blog, Decentralized Identity with Hedera Consensus Service.
