This week, Indicio announced an important new product in the Proven product line: Holdr+. As Ken Ebert, CTO of Indicio, explains: Holdr+is “a mobile way to connect with and coordinate credentials from different systems that were otherwise unusable outside those systems. With Holdr+, they now have that flexibility. We’re focused on Aries-based credentials right now, given that they are the most widely used, but we aim to make Holdr+ a way to use all credentials-either directly or through development contributions from the open source community.”

Indicio is taking part in Authenticate 2022, an event dedicated to educating attendees on the business drivers, technical considerations, and overall best practices for deploying modern authentication systems. Look for Heather Dahl, CEO of Indicio, at the conference and in the virtual presentation “A Masterclass in Decentralized Identity Networks, Verifiable Credentials, and Zero Trust ID Orchestration.”

The Indicio white paper is a comprehensive look at Indicio’s open source-approach and solution to scaling decentralized identity, Proven. It also covers how Indicio’s customers are using the technology behind Proven to solve a wide range of problems and build new products and services.
