Decentralized Identifiers, Verifiable Claims for a More Secure Interoperable IoT

IoT systems remain complex to develop, challenging to scale and extremely difficult to secure. This month's meetup will focus on how two open standards (Decentralized Identifiers & Verifiable Claims) that are being developed under the W3C can help build a more secure, reliable and interoperable Internet of Things. The talk will also include real examples of Ockam's implementation of these open standards.

About our speaker:
