Abstract
Disclosed is a method, a device, and/or a system of authentication through verification of an evolving identity credential. In one embodiment, an authentication method includes receiving an identity claim from a device that includes a device root hash of a hashed history of the device, referred to as a device hastory. Data of a user profile associated with the device that includes a profile root hash of a profile hastory is retrieved. The device root hash and the profile root hash, each of which may be computed as the output of a hash function with inputs including one or more previous authentication transactions, are compared and determined to be identical to verify an identity of a user and/or a device. Alternatively, a comparison may be determined to be non-identical and the authentication request rejected and/or the user profile suspended.
