Abstract
A digital credential issuing system and method use public storage and encryption to provide a more secure digital credential issuing process because there is no direct interaction between the credential issuer and an entity requesting a new credential. The new credential may be secured, such as by using encryption, so that the newly issued credential may be uploaded to the public storage and then decrypted and used by only the particular entity for which the new credential is intended.
