DizmeID Foundation

The DizmeID Foundation, launched in February 2021 under the Linux Foundation, is a consortium focused on developing a Self-Sovereign Identity credential network that bridges the gap between decentralized identity systems and regulatory compliance, particularly with eIDAS regulations. The foundation's technical implementation leverages the Trust Over IP metamodel and builds upon the Sovrin public identity utility, incorporating Hyperledger components and utilizing the Algorand blockchain for its monetization layer.

The technical architecture of DizmeID implements credential management with three distinct assurance levels: low (self-declared information), medium (automatic checks), and substantial (trusted identification). The system supports two types of credential proofs: Full Disclosure and Zero Knowledge. The platform utilizes the W3C Verifiable Credentials Data Model and maintains a credential schema registry that includes:

• Identity Credential Schema aligned with eIDAS requirements
• Context-specific credentials that can be created by authorized issuers
• Support for verifiable credential exchange
• Integration with the Algorand blockchain for transaction management

Notable founding members include:

• Algorand
• Fabrick
• InfoCert

  The foundation also includes a startup supporter program with initial participants like eTuitus, Faberbee, Mopso/Amlet, and Nym
