Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for providing a decentralized federation for attribute-based access control. A request for a list of unique identifiers (IDs) associated with members belonging to the federation is sent to a federation authority. For a unique ID in the list of unique IDs associated with a second member belonging to the federation, a set of communication information for communicating with the second member is determined. Based on the set of communication information associated with the second member, the second member is sent a request for a list of available services. The second member is provided a set of verifiable credentials associated with the first member. The second member determines the list of available services based on the set of verifiable credentials and a set of policies and rules. The list of available services is received from the second member.
