Abstract
A credential management system is described. The credential management system allows a user to identify peers and obtain additional information regarding the peers through the credential management system. The credential management system may perform user analytics and provide the requested additional information to the user. The credential management system may associate the discovered peers with a group or credential, and share information and data with one or more of the discovered peers associated with a particular group or credential in a convenient manner. The credential management system may also implement a hierarchical menu and/or conditions to determine which users of the credential management system may be able to view other users' information and to determine a type of information or data that is transmitted between users.
