  • Apparatus, system, and methods for a blockchain identity translator
    Patent number: 10735182
    Abstract: Blockchain applications can generate public/private key pairs without knowing the true identity of the owner of the private key. Many applications, such as in healthcare or corporate banking, require known identities for legal or regulatory reasons. Therefore a mapping between PKI certificate credentials maintained by certificate authorities and blockchain credentials is needed as one means of transferring real-world identity to blockchain applications. A method and system are provided to associate a PKI certificate to one or more accounts in a cryptographic wallet and extend the due diligence of a third-party certificate authority for identity management on blockchains.
