# Identity

The Finscale Identity service interacts with other services and authenticates, provides roles and permisssion to access the API. 

Identity as a service comprises cloud-based solutions for identity and access management (IAM) functions, such as single sign-on ([*SSO*](https://auth0.com/blog/4-vital-ways-enterprise-sso-saves-your-employees-time/)). These methods allow all users (customers, employees, and third parties) to more securely access sensitive information both on premises and over the cloud.

This is decentralised service that does Authentication using Bitcoin Identity Protocol that works on seckp256 signature method. We should work on providing different type of SDK and employ functional feature of password less authentication.

This service will store identity of the user on the blockchain. 

Eg: A user can reach a certain service with certain roles and permissions recorded here.
