Verified Identity for Issuing Diplomas to Digital Wallets

Updated: Sep 27, 2024

Challenge

Alumni (former students) of a university should be able to receive a digital diploma. This diploma can be used for various purposes, such as:

  • Job applications
  • Availing discounts on further education and study materials
  • Free subscription to the university’s magazine
  • Entry to alumni dinners

The digital diploma should be stored in a digital wallet controlled by the student. The university will issue these digital diplomas, and users must verify their identity using a DIGG-approved e-ID at trust level 3 during the issuance process.

The university wants to verify the identity (typically a personal identity number) by comparing it with the university’s records to confirm whether the student has graduated. The issuance should be administratively simple, secure, and cost-effective.

Solution

The solution comprises several components:

  1. Issuance Software: Based on Entra ID.
  2. Digital Wallet: Any wallet supporting Verifiable Credentials, such as Microsoft Authenticator.
  3. Login: Provided by Fortified ID Integrity Web with DIGG-approved e-IDs at trust level 3 (e.g., BankID, Freja eID, Foreign eID).
  4. Verification: Fortified ID Integrity Web checks the university’s records to confirm that the user is listed and has graduated.

The solution is cost-effective because:

  • Users are accustomed to using e-IDs privately.
  • Issuance of e-IDs is managed externally.
  • Easy integration of new, approved e-IDs.
  • Flexible verification of student graduation.
  • Minimal administrative burden on the organization.
  • Standardized integration.

Additional Information

The integration between Entra ID and Fortified ID Web follows a standardized flow based on OIDC (OpenID Connect).
