Implement forgot your password using swiyu, ASP.NET Core Identity and Aspire
This post show to implement a “Forgot your password” flow using the Swiss Digital identity and trust infrastructure, (swiyu) in an ASP.NET Core web application using ASP.NET Core Identity and Duende IdentityServer. The generic containers from swiyu are used to integrate the Swiss E-ID and the OpenID for Verifiable Presentations standards. .NET Aspire is used […]
Implement MFA using swiyu, the Swiss E-ID with Duende IdentityServer, ASP.NET Core Identity and .NET Aspire
The post shows how to use the Swiss Digital identity and trust infrastructure, (swiyu) as an MFA method in an ASP.NET Core web application using ASP.NET Core Identity and Duende IdentityServer. The generic containers from swiyu are used to integrate the Swiss E-ID and the OpenID for Verifiable Presentations standards. Code: https://github.com/swiss-ssi-group/swiyu-idp-mfa-aspire-aspnetcore Blogs in this […]
Use swiyu, the Swiss E-ID to authenticate users with Duende and .NET Aspire
This post shows how to authenticate users using Duende IdentityServer and ASP.NET Core Identity which verifies identities (verifiable digital credentials) using the Swiss Digital identity and trust infrastructure (swiyu). The swiyu infrastructure is implemented using the provided generic containers which implement the OpenID for Verifiable Presentations standards as well as many other standards for implementing […]
Issue and verify credentials using the Swiss Digital identity public beta, ASP.NET Core and .NET Aspire
This post shows how to issue and verify identities (verifiable credentials) using the Swiss Digital identity and trust infrastructure, (swiyu), ASP.NET Core and .NET Aspire. The swiyu infrastructure is implemented using the provided generic containers which implement the OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance and the OpenID for Verifiable Presentations standards as well as many other […]
Issue and verify BBS+ verifiable credentials using ASP.NET Core and trinsic.id
This article shows how to implement identity verification in a solution using ASP.NET Core and trinsic.id, built using an id-tech solution based on self sovereign identity principals. The credential issuer uses OpenID Connect to authenticate, implemented using Microsoft Entra ID. The edge or web wallet authenticates using trinsic.id based on a single factor email code. […]
Use multiple Microsoft Entra Verified ID credentials in a verification presentation
This post shows how a Microsoft Entra ID verified employee credential can be used together with a self attestation credential to unlock a door. Using this, a person can prove they know a code and prove their employee status. Code: https://github.com/swiss-ssi-group/EntraEmployeeUnlockDoor Get your Verified Employee credential To use this app, the Microsoft Entra employee credential […]
Application security context models
This article looks at a new concept for creating application security context models for modern solutions using best practice security. By using security context models in projects, a qualitative and secure authentication solution can be produced quicker and more efficient. At present, too many solution architects try to patch the security architecture after the application […]
Is scanning QR Codes for authentication safe?
This article explains why cross device authentication has security issues as it is subject to phishing attacks unless further authentication is used in the client. Scanning QR Codes for authentication does not protect against phishing and leaves the users open to having their session stolen. Phishing There a many forms of phishing and this is […]
Problems with online user authentication when using self sovereign identity
Using self sovereign identity (SSI), there is no standardized solutions for solving online user authentication when using verifiable credentials and verifying the identity and user. All solutions result in further compromises and result in new problems. To understand the problems, we need to understand how this works. The following diagram shows the verifiable credential (VC) […]
Implement Compound Proof BBS+ verifiable credentials using ASP.NET Core and MATTR
This article shows how Zero Knowledge Proofs BBS+ verifiable credentials can be used to verify credential subject data from two separate verifiable credentials implemented in ASP.NET Core and MATTR. The ZKP BBS+ verifiable credentials are issued and stored on a digital wallet using a Self-Issued Identity Provider (SIOP) and OpenID Connect. A compound proof presentation […]
