Local booleans and witness proofs are cryptographic techniques intended to let users verify identity-related claims without disclosing underlying personal data, reducing privacy and breach risks associated with centralized verification systems. Local booleans commit to a true-or-false attribute through a hash and secret witness, while witness proofs, often using zero-knowledge techniques, demonstrate knowledge of that witness without exposing it; examples include proving a user is over 18 or holds a valid license without revealing a birth date or license number. The approach can support scalable KYC/AML workflows, selective disclosure, reduced sensitive-data storage, and compliance with regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. Didit says it applies these methods to reusable KYC credentials, generating verified attributes that users can share with services through proofs, and cites its Erlang-based SDK, APIs, scalable infrastructure, and compliance support. The discussion also notes risks involving compromised witnesses, implementation flaws, and future quantum-computing threats, which Didit says it addresses through audits, standard cryptographic libraries, monitoring, updates, and research into post-quantum solutions.
