Trust Registries

Trust is a list
you control.

A perfect-looking document from a stranger is still a stranger. The second half of every TrustDID verdict — who vouches for the sender? — is answered by a registry. This page is about whose registry that is: yours.

Fraudsters don't need to break cryptography. They register a perfectly valid identity of their own, build flawless paperwork, and count on you not knowing the difference between valid and vouched for. Our live demo shows exactly that scam — and exactly how it gets caught.

A trust registry is a vouch list with a name behind it. Whoever runs the list decides who's on it. With TrustDID, that's you.

Here's a real one — the public demo registry every verification on our demo page consults:

Your own registry, in minutes

Every founding customer gets a private trust registry — a vouch list for your organization, at your own address:

yourcompany.trust-registry.trustdid.ca
  • You decide who's on it — your approved suppliers, partners and departments; add or remove in seconds
  • Private by default — only your team can query it; the list itself is nobody else's business
  • Every verification consults it — your whole team's checks answer against your list, automatically
  • Revocation with teeth — drop a compromised supplier and every future check of their documents says so, company-wide, instantly

That's what “trusted ecosystem” means in practice: you and your business partners seal what you send, your registry vouches for the relationships, and documents between you check themselves. New supplier? One entry on the list. Parted ways? One removal. The guesswork never comes back.

Built on open standards — no lock-in

Registries answer over the open Trust-over-IP query protocol (TRQP v2.0), so any standards-compliant verifier can ask them questions — and TrustDID can consult registries run by industry bodies, governments, or platforms like Northern Block's NBOrbit alongside your own. Trust stays decentralized: many lists, each with a name behind it, and you choose which ones count.

Put your suppliers on your list.
