About This Architecture

Decentralized verifiable credentials architecture combining Hyperledger Fabric, IPFS, and zero-knowledge proofs for privacy-preserving degree verification. Issuers submit degree data anchored as DIDs and encrypted payloads on IPFS, while holders generate zk-SNARKs locally in under 4 seconds for off-chain verification. Verifiers query revocation status against the Fabric StateDB without exposing credential details, enabling employers to validate academic credentials with minimal trust assumptions. Fork this diagram to customize credential schemas, adjust proof generation parameters, or integrate additional blockchain networks for multi-issuer scenarios.

People also ask

How can organizations implement privacy-preserving credential verification using Hyperledger Fabric and zero-knowledge proofs?

This diagram shows a three-layer architecture where issuers anchor encrypted credentials on IPFS with DIDs stored in Hyperledger Fabric StateDB, holders generate zk-SNARKs locally for proof without revealing data, and verifiers query revocation status in under 400ms. The system eliminates credential exposure while maintaining cryptographic verification.
