Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for managing digital identities associated with users. One exemplary method includes receiving, at a computing device, an encrypted message from a communication device associated with a user where the message includes a changed attribute for the user. The method also includes generating a first hash of a first digital identity for the user with the changed attribute and generating a second hash of a second digital identity of the user stored in a ledger data structure. And, in response to the first hash not matching the second hash, the method then includes broadcasting a pending status of the first digital identity to a relying party for the second digital identity, and storing a certification of the changed attribute, received from the relying party in response to the pending status, based on verification of the changed attribute by the relying party.
