The EDC IdentityHub fully implements the Decentralized Claims Protocol (DCP) architecture, which is designed to facilitate the secure and private exchange of identity claims between parties.
IdentityHub contains code for both the holder side and the issuer side of the DCP architecture. The holder side is responsible for requesting, storing and presenting Verifiable Credentials, while the issuer side is responsible for issuing Verifiable Credentials to holders according to a pre-arranged definition scheme.
It should be noted that some components of this architecture, specifically dealing with credential issuance, are still undergoing active development and should NOT be used in production scenarios and should NOT be considered stable.
