Self-Sovereign Identity – or SSI in brief – is now a major thing. Benefits and practical applicability are evident to many. Business and political decision takers have grasped its value. A lot of use cases are being implemented, even some driven by the German Federal Chancellery. In this workshop, participants will experience how SSI can be deployed and integrated in enterprise IT environments. A very prominent use case is logging in to web applications only with facts a user presents, completely password-less. Authentication and authorization with standard protocols and methods – e.g. SAML, OpenID Connect, LDAP – can be easily linked to SSI and applied in production scenarios.
