ABSTRACT
Recently, the number of entities in the digital world has increased, due to technologies like 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT). Therefore, in a software application, it is important to be able to identify and maintain entities in an interoperable, efficient, and secure way. For enhancing the identity management domain, blockchain technology has been proposed as a possible solution. We explore how blockchain technology can be used to maintain digital identities and to address some of the issues in the domain. We present the results that we obtained so far, as well as future directions and expected results for our research.
