Abstract:

The identity resolution system assigns identities to physical objects and virtual objects, and connects objects through the network,realizing the interconnection of all things.The development of these systems gradually exposes various problems, such as system architecture defects and data security. In order to solve these problems, the traditional identity resolution system could be improved to a decentralized identity system with blockchain technology, which could eliminate the central node of the network. This paper firstly introduces the challenges of the existing identity resolution system. Furthermore, it elaborates the enabling technologies, research status and industrial application of the decentralized identity system. Finally, the future development of the identity system is concluded and prospected.

Key words: identity resolution, blockchain, decentralized, digital identity, industrialization
