EIDAS Bridge

eIDAS Bridge closes the gap between Verifiable Credentials and existing regulation, making possible to validate the signer of a credential using the eIDASv1 trust framework, by enabling the sealing of verifiable credentials using qualified certificates. This way, the eIDAS bridge adds legal value to verifiable credentials making possible to validate the qualified seal over the credential in compliance with current validation protocols.
