Identity and Access Management is a delicate balance of security and usability. Passwords are simple for a user to understand, but suffer from a lack of security and have a long history of being compromised. Passkeys and third party providers can add an additional layer of security, but tend to be more complex on the backend, and prone to technical errors, downtime, and a more frustrating user experience when things go wrong. What we need is a fast way to access accounts that is simple to use, easy to implement, and secure.

Verifiable Credentials offer a secure way to issue your users complete digital identities to be stored locally on their mobile device using a decentralized network. Once stored in this way, the credential can quickly be verified by anyone with the authentication software, and access can be granted with a simple scan of a QR code, no multifactor authentication required.

In this session we will discuss and show a demonstration of how APIs can quickly enable your existing applications to accept these credentials, and start providing a better user experience for your employees and customers.
