Abstract: Decentralized identity is a new basic network resource integrating traditional internet protocol, blockchain and other technologies. It is a key breakthrough to realize information privacy protection and user decentralization autonomy. The Industrial Internet is the product of the deep integration of a new generation of network information technology and manufacturing industry. It is an important infrastructure to realize industrial digitization, networking and intelligence development. Closely following the development status of decentralized identity at home and abroad, this paper studies the basic theory of decentralized identity and analyzes its application cases in the industrial internet, so as to provide ideas for the follow-up research of decentralized identity and help promote industrial digital transformation in China.

Key words: decentralized identity, blockchain, identity autonomy, Industrial Internet
