AyanWorks Becomes Steward of the Sovrin Network

28th May 2019 flags a remarkable milestone, as AyanWorks joins as a Steward of the Sovrin Network. This opens new horizons of opportunities and unlocks the tremendous potential AyanWorks has in the Decentralized Identity space.

It’s worth a mention that AyanWorks is one of the only two organizations from India to become a Sovrin Network Steward. It places the organization in the existing Stewards bandwagon of some of the industry veterans. AyanWorks will play a critical role by operating and maintaining a validator node in consensus with the global Sovrin Network.

AyanWorks has been delving in the Blockchain space from the time when India was yet to get introduced to this most interesting and niche technology. High-quality Blockchain solutions developed by us for our global customers, on the other hand, prove our expertise and capability. Ayanworks Co-Founders have already been contributing and collaborating in the Hyperledger India Chapter and are recognized for their expertise and contributions in the community.

The organization came across Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) and admires the contributions made by Sovrin to bring SSI to its current state of maturity. AyanWorks strongly believed that becoming a Sovrin Steward will back and help to collaborate with the community with confidence. It will allow to foster collaboration in India to leverage the Sovrin Network through existing channels, acquaintances and solutions resulting in bringing the Sovrin Network in the Blockchain hustle within the subcontinent. It will allow to leverage the Sovrin node for providing SSI services such as DID creation, Schema & Credentials issuance, etc. to global customers.

AyanWorks Co-Founders said, “It is very exciting to become a Sovrin Steward, and it reflects our commitment, seriousness, and strategy to building and delivering world-class decentralized identity solutions to our global customers. With our Sovrin node in India, it will help us in our mission to bring a trusted, decentralized, global identity platform in the mainstream for end-users and enterprises in the Indian sub-continent and in building scalable, trustworthy, and robust digital identity solutions.”

AyanWorks recognizes that establishing a linkage between the exchange of personal data and verifiable identity is an important milestone. Thus to maintain decentralization, confidentiality and ownership of your private data, AyanWorks has built a solution that caters to the above stated problems by leveraging Hyperledger Indy and integrating Self-Sovereign Identity with RFID/Biometrics. With the use of verifiable claims, this solution facilitates users to get authorized on these handles using their globally unique DID without a need to disclose their private/sensitive information such as biometrics, DOB, etc.
