Abstract
Disclosed is a method for authenticating requestors and granting access to a permissioned blockchain network shared among enterprise entities. A decentralized registry of credentialed users, in which credentialed users guard their own access information by keeping a private key of a public-private keypair enables systems to avoid keeping information of a large number of users in large, vulnerable containers. A further method removes authenticated users seeking to be forgotten from the registry of users and deletes any personally identifiable information of the withdrawing users.
