Modelo de Gestión de Confianza Descentralizado Basado en Blockchain para Emisión y Verificación de Microcredenciales

Abstract

Abstract: This paper proposes a decentralized ecosystem for micro-credential management, framed in an ar- chitecture based on blockchain technologies, specifically the Blockcerts standard. The proposal in- tegrates fundamental aspects of decentralization, including decentralized identity management and decentralized storage through IPFS. The developed model attempts to address the main fundamen- tal challenges in authentication and validation of educational credentials, offering a comprehensive solution that improves security, transparency and efficiency. This research enables the design of a reliable system that empowers users and facilitates interoperability between diverse educational institutions and systems. The project is a contribution that defines guidelines and mechanisms for institutions to migrate from traditional systems to automated and innovative solutions.
