Abstract: A computer-implemented method for creating authenticable data may include receiving, at a computer server, a credential; storing, in a first data storage, the credential; and generating a credential decentralized identifier (DID) document. The credential DID document may correspond to the credential. The method may further include obtaining a first digital signature, which may be verifiable via a first public cryptographic key. A first attesting DID document may include the first public cryptographic key. The method may further include storing, in the first data storage, the first digital signature; and modifying the first attesting DID document to include a link configured to provide data access to data stored at first location in the first data storage. The data stored at the first location in the first data storage may include the credential or the first digital signature. The method may include obtaining a verifiable credential.
