ATAG ARF Feedback: 2.1 Identification and access to online services - Secure messaging #266

Description

Name: Heather Dahl, Sam Curren, Indicio

ARF Chapter: 2.1 Identification and access to online service "In this context, a User utilises a single device for both securing their session and accessing the service, ensuring a streamlined and secure experience."

Recommendation: Include DIDs in the ARF. Using DIDs allows for powerful interactions that go beyond verifiable credential use. It is not required for the ARF to define all these interactions — other efforts can do so. The use of DIDs facilitates the use of DIDComm as a communications protocol. This provides features that go beyond verifiable credential uses and their required protocols,, such as secure messaging between online services and individuals and more expansive communication with issuers and verifiers.
