While digital proofs, a subset of which are digital signatures, are required
565
565
to ensure the protection of a < a > verifiable credential</ a > , this specification
566
566
does not standarize on any single digital signature format. At the time of
567
- publication, the Working Group included members that had implemented using
568
- at least three proof mechanisms. These implementations utilized
569
- JSON Web Tokens, Linked Data Signatures, and Camenisch-Lysyanskaya
570
- Zero-Knowledge Proofs. It is expected that each of these mechanisms will mature
571
- independently and additional mechanisms will also become standardized. One
572
- of the goals of this specification is to provide a data model that can be
573
- protected by a variety of current and future digital proof approaches.
574
- Conformance with respect to digital proofs in this specification is focused
575
- on the clear identification of each digital proof mechanism and not the details
576
- of any particular proof mechanism .
