Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 4:
5. A system for use in managing a digital identity for a user, the system comprising:
a computing device comprising:
a memory comprising digital identities for multiple users; and
a processor in communication with the memory, the processor configured to:
receive an encrypted message, the encrypted message including a first digital identity of a user, the first digital identity including at least one changed attribute for the user;
generate a first hash of the first digital identity of the user;
retrieve a second digital identity of the user from the memory and generate a second hash of the second digital identity;
compare the first hash and the second hash;
determine that the first and second hashes do not match;
transmit a request for the user to attest to the at least one changed attribute in response to the first and second hashes not matching;
annotate the first digital identity with a pending approval status based on a received confirmation of the at least one changed attribute;
broadcast the pending approval status of the first digital identity of the user to a relying party associated with the second digital identity in the memory;
receive, from the relying party, a certification for the at least one changed attribute, the certification indicative of the at least one changed attribute being verified by the relying party;
store the certification in the memory in association with the first digital identity, wherein the certification is indicative of adopting the relying party verification of the at least one changed attribute;
annotate the status of the first digital identity stored in the memory with an approved status based on the certification from the relying party; and
broadcast the approved status of the first digital identity of the user to the relying party and/or at least one additional relying party associated with the second digital identity; and

a communication device comprising a second memory, and a second processor in communication with the second memory, the second processor configured to:
generate and transmit the encrypted message to the computing device;
display the request for the user to attest to the at least one changed attribute;
capture an image of a physical document presented to the communication device, in response to the request;
confirm the physical document based on the image of the physical document; and
transmit the confirmation of the changed attribute to the computing device in response to confirming the physical document based on the image of the physical document.
