Abstract
An association management system for establishing, maintaining, and monitoring associations between a personal identifier and an electronic device, includes a provider subsystem in operable communication with at least one of the personal identifier and the electronic device. The provider subsystem is configured to provision a person associated with the personal identifier, authenticate both of the personal identifier and the electronic device, and establish an association of the authenticated personal identifier to the authenticated electronic device. The system further includes a certificate authority subsystem for issuing at least one digital certificate to verify an identity of one or more digital entities operating on the management system, and a digital distributed ledger including a plurality of a consensus pool of participating processors. The digital distributed ledger is configured to verify, using the at least one digital certificate, transaction events of the association management system.
