Abstract
A system and method for a self-authenticating identity. A self-authenticating identity is a digital identity created in an embodiment by aggregating a user's verified identity information and its public key, both of which are digitally signed by the user and an identity provider. This cryptographic binding allows the user to prove it is in fact the true party that the identity was issued to, without the need for a third party to be directly involved. The identity may also contain information that conveys how the identity was verified.
