Abstract

Methods and systems disclosed herein relate to providing a receiving entity with a package of assertions. A package of assertions may include a group of yes or no statements (e.g., as an answer to a question). Alternatively, or additionally, a package of assertions may comprise a clustered assertion, which is a singular yes or no statement, that is itself based on a set of underlying assertions made using information from one or more sources. A particular type of package of assertions may be selected based on the relying entity requesting the assertions, based on an assertions model. The package of assertions may be cryptographically secured.
