Description
Summary:The Blockchain-based Decentralized Identity Management System (BDIMS) is an innovative framework designed for digital identity management, utilizing the unique attributes of blockchain technology. The BDIMS categorizes entities into three distinct groups: identity providers, service providers, and end-users. The system’s efficiency in identifying and extracting information from identification cards is enhanced by the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. These algorithms decompose the extracted fields into smaller units, facilitating optical character recognition (OCR) and user authentication processes. By employing Merkle Trees, the BDIMS ensures secure authentication with service providers without the need to disclose any personal information. This advanced system empowers users to maintain control over their private information, ensuring its protection with maximum effectiveness and security. Experimental results confirm that the BDIMS effectively mitigates identity fraud while maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data.
