Decentralized Identifier (DID) technology is a technology that uses blockchain technology to prove an individual's identity through information owned by the individual rather than through a central system. In this paper, we would like to present an access control system using decentralized identifier technology. The access control system using decentralized identifier technology (DID access control system) is a system that allows users to verify their identity from the DID blockchain server through their smartphone (mobile employee ID) and access when they are confirmed to be registered in the access control system. Through this, access control can be managed only by verifying identification with smartphones (mobile employee ID) and DID blockchain servers without having to store information to prove an individual's identity in the access control system.

With the development of the Internet, user authentication technology that proves me online is improving. Existing ID methods pose a threat of personal information leakage if the service provider manages personal information and security is weak, and the information subject is to the service provider. In this study, as online identification technology develops, we propose a DID-based self-authentication model to prevent the threat of leakage of personal information from a centralized format and strengthen sovereignty. The proposed model allows users to directly manage personal information and strengthen their sovereignty over information topics through VC issued by the issuing agency. As a research method, a self-authentication model that guarantees security and integrity is presented using a decentralized identifier method based on distributed ledger technology, and the security of the attack method is analyzed. Because it authenticates through DID Auth using public key encryption algorithms, it is safe from sniffing, man in the middle attack, and the proposed model can replace real identity card.

As technological development continues, platforms with more diverse structures are emerging. Existing research predicts that a new structure based on technology and innovation will affect the two-sided market. This study evaluated the decentralized identifier (DID) platform, a new platform based on blockchain technology, of the importance of this platform from the perspective of the two-sided market. Using the Analytic Network Process, IT, platform, and blockchain experts conducted a dual comparison survey. Data with a consistency ratio value of 0.1 or less were selected and analyzed for 12 data. The research results showed the importance of service quality, policy support, openness, and uncertainty. This study is expected to be used to support the development of strategic decision-making for blockchain and DID platform-based business companies.

Identity authentication is an important technology that has long been used in society to identify individuals and provide appropriate services. With the development of the Internet infrastructure, many areas have expanded into online areas, and identity authentication technologies have also expanded online. However, there is still a limit to identity authentication technology that relies entirely on trusted third parties like the government. A centralized identity management system makes the identification process between agencies with different identity management systems very complex, resulting in a waste of money and time for users. In particular, the limits of the centralized identity management system were clearly revealed in the face mask shortage in the 2020 COVID-19 crisis. A Decentralized Identity (DID) is a way for users to manage their identity on their own, and recently, a number of DID platform based on blockchain technology have been proposed. In this paper, we analyze the limitations of the existing centralized identity management system and propose a DID system that can be utilized in future national emergency situations such as COVID-19.

디지털 신원은 온라인 환경에서 빠르게 중요해지고 있으며, 그 관리의 중요성은 날로 커지고 있다. 중앙화된 신원 관리 시스템의 한계를 인식하며, 탈중앙화된 신원 관리 시스템인 DID(Decentralized Identifier)에 대한 연구와 관심이 확대되고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고, DID 활용 시 개인정보 유출의 리스크는 여전히 남아 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해, 본 연구는 일회용 DID 기법을 제시하였고, 해당 기법은 사용자의 비연결성을 향상시키며, 키 유출과 관리 문제를 최소화한다. 본 연구를 통해, 일회용 DID가 비연결성 강화, 키의 안전한 관리 등의 이점을 제공함을 확인하였다.

Hyperledger Indy is an open-source implementation of DID, a decentralized identity verification technology. Hyperledger Indy uses the RBFT consensus algorithm, and if there is a lack of consensus with more than a certain number of problem nodes in the pool, data is not added. This problem can be prevented in advance by adding a node, and a node monitoring system was implemented to operate automatically. The node monitoring system continuously checks the status of the pool and automatically adds nodes when there are more than a certain number of problematic nodes to prevent consensus problems from occurring. This proposed method can increase the availability of Hyperledger Indy and is a study that can be referenced in various blockchain services that use consensus algorithms.
