Hyland Credentials is a cloud-based product for designing and issuing credentials in a blockchain-secured format that is shareable and verifiable. These blockchain-anchored credentials are cryptographically signed, allowing the verifier to understand where they were issued from and who they were issued to. The credentials are shareable, tamper-evident, W3C VC compliant, and are immediately and independently verifiable.
Hyland Credentials provides the framework to design, issue, anchor, and deliver verifiable credentials. It can be integrated into a customer’s larger software ecosystem, allowing users to remain in applications they are comfortable in or where the originating data resides.
As such, customers should plan to have a repository to store or host credentials and an application to manage the interaction with the APIs. This empowers them to retain control of their data and ensure it meets necessary security requirements, depending on the type of data exposed in the credentials.
