Abstract
An access gateway may grant a requestor access to a computer resource. The requestor may receive a credential from an identity provider and calculate a zero-knowledge proof of possession of the credential. The requestor may use the proof to request access to the computer resource. The identity provider may record a policy corresponding to the credential in a distributed ledger. The access gateway may, subject to verifying the proof, retrieve the policy from the distributed ledger. The policy may indicate that the requestor is authorized to access the computer resource. The access gateway may grant the requestor access to the computer resource as indicated by the policy.
