What is ObjectID
1. Introduction ObjectID is a universal digital identifier designed to assign a certain and tamper-proof identity to any real-world product, regardless of its type, industry, or complexity. At its core,…
READ ARTICLE ↗FOUNDATIONS02Core Concept
At its essence, ObjectID is a digital twin of a real-world object, designed to exist independently from centralized systems, databases, or proprietary platforms. It is a self-contained, verifiable representation of…
READ ARTICLE ↗FOUNDATIONS03Key Features
ObjectID is designed with simplicity at its core, but under the hood, it provides a robust set of features that make it suitable for high-integrity environments like supply chains, certification…
READ ARTICLE ↗FOUNDATIONS04Use Cases
ObjectID is a flexible tool that fits seamlessly into a wide range of industries and scenarios. Its core promise-secure, verifiable identity with optional lifecycle traceability-can be applied wherever there’s a…
READ ARTICLE ↗FOUNDATIONS05How ObjectID Works
Introduction At first glance, ObjectID may seem like a simple identifier, but under the hood, it’s a lightweight yet powerful mechanism built to provide integrity, traceability, and interoperability for any…
READ ARTICLE ↗FOUNDATIONS06The Lifecycle of an ObjectID
An ObjectID has a lifecycle that mirrors the life of the object it represents. From creation to disposal, it can act as a digital timeline, anchoring key events and transitions…
READ ARTICLE ↗FOUNDATIONS07Underlying Technology
ObjectID is built on a foundation of distributed technologies and cryptographic principles that make it secure, decentralized, and tamper-resistant by design. Let’s break down the core components that enable this.…

How to configure your Domain Linked Verifiable Credential
If you’re reading this, you’ve likely already downloaded your did-configuration.json file. Great! You’re just a few steps away from verifying your domain ownership using a Domain Linked Verifiable Credential (DLVC).…
READ ARTICLE ↗IDENTITY & CREDENTIALS02What is a Distributed Identifier (DID)
A Distributed Identifier (DID) is a new type of identifier designed to enable individuals, organizations, and devices to have verifiable, self-controlled digital identities. Unlike traditional identifiers (such as usernames or…
READ ARTICLE ↗IDENTITY & CREDENTIALS03What is a DID Document
A DID Document is a key component of a decentralized identity system. It describes how to interact securely with the subject identified by a DID (Decentralized Identifier). Every DID resolves…
READ ARTICLE ↗IDENTITY & CREDENTIALS04What is a Verifiable Credential
A Verifiable Credential (VC) is a digital version of a credential-such as an ID card, certificate, diploma, or license-that can be issued, presented, and verified securely using cryptography. Verifiable Credentials…
READ ARTICLE ↗IDENTITY & CREDENTIALS05How DIDs and Verifiable Credentials Are Used in ObjectID
ObjectID uses Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs) as the foundation of its trust, authenticity, and interoperability model. These technologies make it possible to identify entities, prove ownership, and&h
