A trusted technology system that creates, maintains, and manages identity information for a Participant and Participant Agents.
An Identity Provider is a trust anchor that generates ID tokens used to verify the identity of a Participant Agent. Multiple identity providers may operate in a Dataspace. The types and semantics of ID tokens are not part of this specification. An Identity Provider may be a third-party or a Participant itself (for example, in the case of decentralized identifiers).
