It’s hard to overstate the importance of digital identity: It governs every interaction online, from email and social media to ecommerce and critical financial transactions. Simply put, everyone must be able to trust that they are connecting with who they believe they are connecting with. If you are interested in this topic, read about why you should join the Identity Special Interest Group. You are welcome to attend their next session – check out their meeting schedule, learn more about the group and find our meeting meeting notes archive.

Hyperledger Aries
- A new version of Aries Cloud Agent Python has been released -- 0.9.0. Release 0.9.0 is an important upgrade that changes (PR #2302) the dependency on the now archived Hyperledger Ursa project to its updated, improved replacement, AnonCreds CL-Signatures. This important change is ONLY available when using Aries Askar as the wallet type, which brings in both [Indy VDR] and the CL-Signatures via the latest version of CredX from the indy-shared-rs repository. Read more in the release notes.
