About this talk

The internet has been missing a layer of protocols addressing users’ identities. As a result, users end up losing ownership and control of their online presence to companies that create and verify identities for them. This leads to major issues, such as identity theft and fraud, and causes huge distress and loss to the users as well as severe penalties for the companies. Recently, self-sovereign identity (SSI) has emerged, placing users at the center of their identities and data. This movement involves technologists who are building open internet protocols aligned with the SSI principles. In this presentation, viewers will learn from Kaliya Young and Lucy Yang -- two experts at the forefront of protocol development and adoption -- about: • SSI’s emergence; • The latest developments in SSI protocols; and • Why adoption of SSI protocols is growing around the globe.
