Topic: Good Health Pass - Paper Credentials
Start Time : Jun 18, 2021 10:59 AM

1. Welcome and Linux Foundation antitrust policy

2. Review of Public Input

Make it clear that the requirements drove this paper-based option
Reality is suboptimal; here are risks but if you have to do it, this is the way to do it
Already out there; not the best thing, already out there
Constrained this - big warning label - best way to do this is digital
Can have credentials on paper and expiring passes
QR code with your information, exchange this for a pass, but pass can’t be digitally signed
Fundamentally, want to go to a URL that disappears - no information can be derived after a few days

If you’re providing a link to portal; it’s a wallet, holder is the owner of - holding information online; QR not a credential, just a link
Online version - custodial wallet and holder places credentials there
If they want to use QR to represent information, we don’t need to follow paper creds

Not trying to solve the problem of how do you give a person a piece of paper that provides a proof response online - harder problem
Offline presentation and verification is incompatible with verifier collusion - but design constraints require we come up with something workable in this ecosystem
Offline use case is not a secondary use case - if you look at Europe, 26 countries with millions of credentials and a basic requirement is that if they can’t be verified offline
Separate offline from paper credentials - two separate problems; paper-based is paper, offline is different
Proof request offline (cached keys); two separate problems
Harder problem is doing request from QR code - it’s entirely new protocol that won’t do anything; maybe we need to create working group for that option - if you have wallet online, way to communicate with verifier that is not online
Offline/offline vs. offline/online
Action item: Explicitly separate offline vs paper - requirement for paper vs. offline; can use standard digital wallet and can do offline verification; you do not need ot use a paper based credential

QR code is the credential
CDC is the record; it’s obvious it’s a photo - QR codes can be replicated
In practice, very few people care about it - the value-add of the signature in practice is minimum or non-existent
Should be mindful because having something you can share
Unique ID to anonymous entity? If name and DOB is there; psyneuonomized?

Only do this if you have a paper based requirement
Verify the verifier
No one wants to go the paper route - there is nobody out there; if governments do it for citizens, could do it quickly, but no appetite for governments to stand up digital wallets for all of their citizens
Be explicit in that we’re not doing offline/online
