Abstract
A method for supporting identity management of travelers in an airport using a distributed ledger system includes receiving, by a global identity blockchain, a registration request from a traveler via a traveler device. The registration request includes a commitment for identity data that is uploaded by the traveler in a secure cloud storage. The method further includes recording the commitment in the global identity blockchain, receiving, by the global identity blockchain, a result of an identity verification with respect to the traveler from a verifier entity, recording the result in the global identity blockchain, and receiving, by a security blockchain, a ticket registration transaction issued by an airline entity. The ticket registration transaction comprises a unique traveler ID of the traveler. The method further includes issuing, by the security blockchain, an access control list update upon reception of consent by the traveler.
