Reclaim is a protocol that allows users to prove claims about their online data without requiring cooperation from the websites that hold that data. It enables secure, privacy-preserving credential management and verification.
The Reclaim protocol consists of several components:
- Client-side libraries for generating proofs
- Attestor node software
- Reclaim blockchain for managing the token economy and storing proofs
- Smart contracts for handling claim requests and attestations
- Generate Proofs of Provenance (PoP) for data received through TLS/HTTPS connections
- Selective reveal of data, allowing users to share only specific parts of their information
- Zero-knowledge proofs to maintain user privacy
- Decentralized attestation system
- Economic incentives for honest behavior
- Custom blockchain to facilitate protocol operations and token economy
Reclaim Protocol generates cryptographic proofs on HTTPS traffic. The type of cryptographic proof it generates is called a zero knowledge proof. It lets the user generate the proof without knowledge of anything other than what the user wants to share with you. The Protocol is built upon open standards such as HTTPS and TLS.
