Verified Credentials with zero-knowledge SPARQL queries
Enabling derived W3C Verifiable Credentials with Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP)
This project develops a standard way for Verifiable Credential holder services to minimise the amount of data they share with verifier services. This is achieved by enabling holder services to show that a SPARQL query run over the set of credentials holds without disclosing the content of the credential. An example usage of this is enabling car hiring authorities to verify your eligibility to drive in a given country without needing details of your passport, license or citizenship. The project is intended to mature the current prototype and aims towards a W3C Standards Track.
