# Masque ID

#### **Overview**

Masque ID is a decentralized protocol designed to manage on-chain identities for compliant digital assets. It combines on-chain identity proofs with off-chain data storage, optimizing KYC processes while protecting user privacy through encrypted identity proofs.

***

#### **Key Features**

**1.  Identity** 

Users manage their identities with attributes such as:

* Jurisdiction codes
* Risk scores
* Compliance credentials

**2. Off-Chain Privacy**

* Sensitive data (e.g., passports) is securely stored with trusted KYC providers.
* Only encrypted identity proofs are published on-chain.

**3. Cryptographic Proofs**

Tamper-proof attestations validate identity without exposing private data, ensuring authenticity.

**4. Claims-Based Verification**

* Compliance claims (e.g., KYC, AML) are managed in the Claim Registry.
* Claims are linked to user identities for real-time regulatory validation.

**5. Dynamic Risk Management**

Risk scores are updated dynamically based on user activity, jurisdiction, and compliance status.

***

#### **Core Processes**

**Identity Creation**

Users submit documents to KYC providers, who validate and issue encrypted identity proofs published on-chain.

**Compliance Validation**

The Compliance Module queries Identity and Claim Registries for real-time regulatory checks.

**Updates and Restrictions**

Non-compliant identities and expired claims are dynamically revoked or updated.
