Abstract
Method of certification including receiving user data at a device of a certifying entity. The method includes generating a salt that is unique. The method includes hashing the data combined with the salt to create a generated hashed data. The method includes generating a certification record based on signing the generated hashed data using a private key of the certifying entity to create a signed certification of the data. The method includes hashing the certification record. The method includes transmitting the hashed certification record to a blockchain for storing. The method includes receiving a certification tx-ID of the hashed certification record. The method includes generating a certification data block including the certification record and the certification tx-ID. The method includes storing the certification data block to a side chain.
