Walt.id extended their identity product suite, to now support the Gaia-X ecosystem. Giving you the tools, to onboard, manage and utilize SSI for authentication and access management from web2 to web3. OIDC compliant at it’s root, it can be integrated with apps, existing infrastructure and federated clouds, to only name a few.

In the following sections, you can see how the onboarding to the Gaia-X ecosystem works and how you can build Auth & Access into your OIDC-compliant client.

To participate in the Gaia-X ecosystem, you can use either the SSI Kit CLI or the Web Wallet.

SSI Kit

The SSI Kit from walt.id was extended to now support the onboarding and usage of the Gaia-X trust framework.

To dive deeper into the how, we’ve created a video which gives you step-by-step instructions on how to get-started.

The open-source web-wallet from walt.id can also be used to onboard and participate in the Gaia-X trust framework.

** Auth & access**

Using W3C verifiable credentials from Gaia-X to provide Authentication and access management to your users. Walt.id has extended their IDP Kit, which gives you an OIDC-conform IdP, to now support W3C verifiable credentials from the Gaia-X ecosystem, with the option to dynamically validate Gaia-X SDs using Open Policy Agent.

To see how to configure Auth & Access validation, have a look at the Integration section.

Integration

Through the IDP Kit from Walt.id which gives us an OIDC-conform IdP, we can now easily integrate it with our OIDC client or any other OIDC complaint infrastructure, e.g. KeyCloak or Sovereign Cloud Stack.

To see how you can use it with the Sovereign Cloud Stack as demonstrated in the Gaia-X hackathon.

To see an example with KeyCloak, watch our video:
