Walt.id announces highlights available through 1.2.0 of its identity lib and Enterprise Stack.

Product Update #34 ↗

What happened

  • Issuer2 can verify key attestations and a credential configuration can require one with key_attestations_required.
  • Wallet2 supports batch issuance requesting several copies of a credential, each bound to its own holder key.
  • Issuer2 can require PAR via requirePushedAuthorizationRequests; default is false.
  • A walt.id demo shows the Verifier API requesting a credential from Google Wallet.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Feature release adds issuer-side controls (key attestation, mandatory PAR) relevant to wallet issuance interoperability; a competitor build, not a Signicat event.
  • Google Wallet verifier demo indicates walt.id interoperability work with a major wallet; demo-only, no customer or availability claim.
Evidence from the source (6 quotes)
  • “Issuer2 can now verify a key attestation carried in a JWT proof or sent as a standalone attestation proof, and a credential configuration can require one with `key_attestations_required`.” source ↗
  • “One receive call can select offered credential configurations and request several copies, each bound to its own holder key.” source ↗
  • “Set `requirePushedAuthorizationRequests` to `true` when you create or update an Issuer2 service and wallets must post the authorization parameters to the pushed authorization endpoint first.” source ↗
  • “This demo shows interoperability between the walt.id Verifier API and Google Wallet.” source ↗
  • “Require Key Attestations in Issuer2” source ↗

Product Update #33 ↗

What happened

  • The update lists batch issuance on Issuer2, letting several credentials go into one offer.
  • The update announces guides for 10 industries on eIDAS 2 and the EUDI Wallet.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Walt.id's demo wallets and EUDI certificate profiles overlap with Signicat's Wallet Hub and EUDI readiness positioning, but the update does not claim wallet certification or deployments.
Evidence from the source (3 quotes)
  • “Put several credentials into one offer, or let a wallet request multiple proof-bound copies of a credential in a single call.” source ↗
  • “New eIDAS 2 industry guides – Guides for 10 industries, from public sector and financial services to telecom, healthcare and online platforms.” source ↗

Under eIDAS 2 a very large online platform that requires authentication must also accept the EUDI Wallet as a login option.

eIDAS 2 for Very Large Online Platforms: What Platforms Need to Know ↗

What happened

  • The article gives 20 May 2024 as the date Regulation (EU) 2024/1183 entered into force.
  • The article states the practical trigger for the platform acceptance obligation is wallet availability at the end of 2026.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Content positions walt.id as a verifier-side provider for platforms, overlapping Signicat's Wallet Hub and EUDI readiness offer.
  • Article claims open-source inspectability eases privacy defence; this is walt.id's own claim, not independently established.

Walt.id publishes eIDAS 2 guide for energy and utility suppliers

eIDAS 2 for Energy & Utilities: What Suppliers Need to Know ↗

What happened

  • The guide states that eIDAS 2 names both energy and drinking water as sectors that must accept the EUDI Wallet.
  • The guide states that municipal and publicly owned utilities must be ready by end of 2026, and commercial suppliers by end of 2027.
  • The guide states that micro and small enterprises are exempt from the acceptance obligation.
  • The guide describes walt.id Community Stack as open-source issuer, verifier and wallet infrastructure, and Enterprise Stack as the managed offering on top of it.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Content targets Signicat's utility and public-sector EUDI verifier market with a build-versus-buy pitch favouring a standards-compliant provider.
  • The guide's deadlines overlap Signicat's EUDI wallet readiness priority for relying parties.
Evidence from the source (6 quotes)
  • “eIDAS 2 names both energy and drinking water as sectors that must accept the EUDI Wallet.” source ↗
  • “Municipal and publicly owned utilities, which are public-sector bodies, have to be ready by the end of 2026; commercial suppliers by the end of 2027.” source ↗

Walt.id announced V1 of its Community and Enterprise Stack, supporting OID4VCI and OID4VP v1.

Product Update #32 ↗

What happened

  • Walt.id introduced Crypto2, a re-architected crypto library with pluggable software, device, remote-KMS and HSM (PKCS#11) providers.
  • The Enterprise Stack now requires an active license to run, with online or offline activation.
  • The post lists breaking changes, including removal of the init-wallet route and move of protocol routes to /v2.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Release adds EUDI-aligned OID4VCI/VP v1 issuer, verifier and wallet components that compete with Signicat Wallet Hub's wallet capabilities.
  • Licensing gate and breaking API changes indicate a self-hosted enterprise offering; Signicat impact is limited to developer-segment competition.
Evidence from the source (5 quotes)
  • “It re-architects key handling and extends multiplatform reach to more platforms incl. Android and iOS.” source ↗
  • “The Enterprise Stack now requires an active license to run.” source ↗

Public hospitals, national health services and public insurers must accept the EUDI Wallet by the end of 2026.

eIDAS 2 for Healthcare: What Providers, Insurers and Health Authorities Need to Know ↗

What happened

  • The article states that private providers have until the end of 2027 to accept the EUDI Wallet.
  • The article states that walt.id Community Stack provides open-source issuer, verifier, and wallet infrastructure.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • The guide positions walt.id as a 'buy infrastructure' option for healthcare verifiers and issuers, a direct overlap with Signicat's wallet and eID Hub offering in healthcare; relevance is moderate because it is a how-to guide without named customers.
  • The content is generic eIDAS 2 education with a vendor product section; no pricing, customer or benchmark claims.

  • “Private providers have until the end of 2027.” source ↗
  • “The walt.id Community Stack provides open-source issuer, verifier, and wallet infrastructure for organisations that want to own their stack” source ↗

Transport operators classified as public sector bodies face the wallet acceptance deadline first, with private operators a year later.

eIDAS 2 for Transport & Mobility: What Operators Need to Know ↗

What happened

  • The article states that micro and small enterprises with fewer than 50 employees and at most €10 million turnover are exempt from the acceptance obligation.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Content is educational with no named competitor product or customer; low direct competitive threat.

The guide states that eIDAS 2 requires public authorities to accept the EUDI Wallet as soon as wallets are available, at the end of 2026.

eIDAS 2 for the Public Sector: What Governments Need to Know ↗

What happened

  • The guide lists a European Business Wallet proposal dated 19 November 2025 as still under development.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • The guide is generic explainer content for public-sector buyers on the EUDI deadline that overlaps Signicat's EUDI Wallet readiness priority, with no product or customer claim.
  • The 'build apps, buy infrastructure (recommended)' framing positions a standards-compliant identity-layer provider as the default buying choice for public bodies, which Signicat's Wallet Hub could be measured against.
Evidence from the source (3 quotes)
  • “19 November 2025 | European Business Wallet proposed | A possible second acceptance obligation for company interactions; Still under development” source ↗
  • “This guide covers the deadline, the roles public authorities play under eIDAS 2, issuing official documents as digital credentials, and how to build a compliant solution.” source ↗

The guide defines a verifier as a government or business that requests and validates credential attributes from an EUDI Wallet.

eIDAS 2 Verifier Requirements: How to Verify Credentials Under eIDAS 2 ↗

What happened

  • The guide states that every verifier must register with the national Registrar before requesting attributes, citing Regulation (EU) 2025/848.
  • The guide lists a three-path integration model and marks buying the verification infrastructure as recommended.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • The guide frames verifier compliance as a buy decision for relying parties, which targets Signicat's Wallet Hub and eID-brokering buyers in Nordics and DACH.
  • Walt.id's claims on automated EU Trusted List validation and certificate lifecycle management are vendor-stated and uncorroborated here.
Evidence from the source (4 quotes)
  • “under Regulation (EU) 2025/848 every verifier must register with the national Registrar before it can request attributes from a usere/wallet.” source ↗
  • “Build apps, buy infrastructure *(recommended)* — build only the application layer (service logic, UX) and use a standards-compliant verification solution (such as the walt.id Enterprise Stack).” source ↗

Walt.id publishes eIDAS 2 guide for banks on wallet SCA and acceptance

eIDAS 2 for Financial Services: What Banks Need to Know ↗

What happened

  • The guide states that eIDAS 2 requires banks, fintechs, and payment institutions to accept the EUDI Wallet for customer authentication by the end of 2027.
  • The guide states that the European Commission published TS12 v1.0 on 5 December 2025 as the specification for wallet-based SCA.
  • The guide states that micro and small enterprises (fewer than 50 employees and at most €10 million annual turnover) are exempt from the acceptance obligation.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Content is generic educational guidance with a PDF lead-capture form; it names no Signicat product.
Evidence from the source (4 quotes)
  • “eIDAS 2 (Regulation (EU) 2024/1183) requires banks, fintechs, and payment institutions to accept the EU Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) for customer authentication by the end of 2027.” source ↗
  • “| 5 December 2025 | TS12 v1.0 published | The rules for wallet-based SCA under PSD2 are final | ” source ↗

Walt.id reports OID4VCI v1 issuer2 service and OID4VCI v1 wallet support in its Enterprise Stack releases 0.19.0 and 0.20.0.

Product Update #29 ↗

What happened

  • Walt.id reports a new Trust Registry service for managing ETSI trust lists (TSL, LoTE).
  • Walt.id reports that legacy VICAL and certificate-store APIs were removed in favor of a new service model.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Open-source/developer-tooling release notes; limited direct overlap with Signicat's commercial eID Hub or Wallet Hub offerings, though EUDI trust-list and OID4VCI coverage is relevant to Wallet Hub competitive positioning.
  • Breaking changes to VICAL and X.509 APIs indicate migration friction for existing walt.id clients.
Evidence from the source (4 quotes)
  • “Added a new service for managing ETSI trust lists (TSL, LoTE) for credential verification against official trust frameworks.” source ↗
  • “Legacy VICAL registry and certificate-store APIs and resources were removed in favor of the new service model, storage layout, and permission mappings.” source ↗

The case study is a vendor-published account of NDID's use of walt.id's Community Stack for a Thai digital identity platform.

Digitizing Thailand’s National Identity Infrastructure — walt.id Case Studies ↗

What happened

  • The case study states a roll-out to 20 Million+ consumers and 5-6 major banks, with go-live listed as 2025-2026.
  • The case study states the Issuer, Wallet and Verifier are in production, a claim attributed to the vendor and not independently verified.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • A national wallet deployment with banks on an open-source stack is a reference point in Asia-Pacific, outside Signicat's core markets.
  • The piece promotes open-source ownership and no vendor lock-in, a counter-narrative to proprietary platform positioning.
Evidence from the source (4 quotes)
  • “Roll-Out | 20 Million+ consumers & 5-6 major banks | ” source ↗
  • “With the Issuer, Wallet, and Verifier now in production” source ↗

Walt.id ships 0.18.0 with OIDC enterprise auth and zero-retention mode

Product Update #28 ↗

What happened

  • Walt.id lists 0.18.0 of its identity lib and Enterprise Stack release highlights, including CWT support for TokenStatusList and a Digital Credential API test app.
  • The Enterprise Auth API now supports OIDC as an authentication flow, including external role mapping from identity providers such as Keycloak.
  • A configurable zero-retention mode for PII in issuance and verification sessions is introduced; when enabled, session data is not persisted beyond the immediate transaction.
  • TokenStatusList support is upgraded to IETF Draft 15, with changed status value ranges and compression behaviour.
  • Annex C (DC API) flow support has been integrated into the Enterprise Verifier2 Service.
  • Dependency upgrades include Kotlin, KotlinCrypto, nimbus-jose-jwt and Next.js security patches.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Enterprise OIDC auth and zero-retention mode target enterprise authentication and data-minimisation buyers that overlap with Signicat authentication and privacy positioning; overlap is moderate, as the source describes a developer release rather than a commercial launch.
  • Annex C DC API support and the Digital Credential API test app indicate walt.id work on browser-based credential presentation, relevant to Signicat Wallet Hub presentation flows.
Evidence from the source (8 quotes)
  • “Below are the highlights available through 0.18.0 of the identity lib.” source ↗
  • “The Enterprise Auth API now supports OIDC as an authentication flow, including external role mapping from identity providers (e.g., Keycloak) to Enterprise Stack roles.” source ↗
  • “A configurable zero-retention mode has been introduced for PII data in issuance and verification sessions.” source ↗

Walt.id announced a new verifier 2 API with OID4VP v1 support in its Community Stack, to replace the current verifier by Q2 2026.

Product Update #26 ↗

What happened

  • Walt.id stated that OID4VP v1.0 is not yet supported in its wallet or demo apps.
  • Walt.id added a configurable JSON→CBOR mapping layer for mDoc namespaces.
  • Walt.id published a demo portal and JS components for verification flows using the Digital Credentials API.
  • Walt.id added session PII retention and auto-purge controls to its Enterprise Stack.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Verifier-side OID4VP v1 and Digital Credentials API support is relevant to EUDI-wallet presentation flows, a capability area in Signicat's Wallet Hub scope; impact on Signicat's roadmap is not established by this source.
Evidence from the source (5 quotes)
  • “Note: OID4VP v1.0 is not yet supported in the wallet or demo apps.” source ↗
  • “A configurable JSON→CBOR mapping layer was added with namespace builders, typed namespace data, and recursive translators” source ↗
  • “We’ve also published a demo portal and JS components to make building verification flows with walt.id and the Digital Credentials API easier.” source ↗
  • “Configurable issuer/verifier session retention via `data-retention.conf` and the `data-retention` feature flag, including scheduled auto-purge, dry-run mode, and logging to limit stored PII.” source ↗

Walt.id announced an integration letting governments and businesses operate AWS Key Management Service with the walt.id stack.

AWS KMS integration ↗

What happened

  • Keys for digital identity wallets created via walt.id wallet SDKs and APIs are created and stored in AWS KMS.
  • Signatures for credential issuance and presentation are created inside AWS KMS when AWS is used as external KMS.
  • The integration has been open-sourced via the Community Stack.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • The integration targets a key-custody gap for wallet and issuance deployments that run on AWS KMS, relevant to Signicat's Wallet Hub and EUDI wallet work.
  • Open-sourcing the integration lowers switching cost for developers already on walt.id, a competitive pressure on developer adoption.
Evidence from the source (5 quotes)
  • “Keys powering the digital identity wallets created via the walt.id wallet SDKs and APIs are now created and stored in the highly secure AWS KMS environment.” source ↗
  • “Signatures for issuance and presentation of digital credentials are also created in the AWS environment.” source ↗
  • “Since we’ve decided to open-source it (via the Community Stack), everyone will get access” source ↗

The update states that walt.id launched the Enterprise Stack, the AWS KMS integration, and OpenID4VC library improvements in the month.

Product Update #20 ↗

What happened

  • Walt.id states that the Issuer API can sign and issue credentials using keys stored in AWS KMS.
  • Walt.id states that the Wallet API can store and manage holder keys via the AWS KMS integration.
  • The update lists utility objects OpenID4VC, OpenID4VCI, and OpenID4VP for OpenID protocol data transformations, available through identity lib v0.9.0.
  • Walt.id describes The Enterprise Stack as its most powerful product, built for businesses and governments to offer digital ID and wallet solutions at scale.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • AWS KMS key support for issuance and holder wallets is a material feature for enterprise wallet deployments that Signicat's Wallet Hub competes against.
  • The Enterprise Stack launch is a product positioning move toward governments and enterprises, overlapping Signicat's wallet and eID Hub offerings; details are not in this article.
Evidence from the source (6 quotes)
  • “Sign & issue credentials using keys stored in an AWS KMS via the walt.id Issuer API” source ↗
  • “Store and manage holder keys via the AWS KMS integration in the Wallet API.” source ↗

Walt.id states that v0.6.0 of its identity lib adds support for SD-JWT VC and mDL credentials via its issuer, verifier and wallet API services using OID4VC/VP.

Product Update #17 ↗

What happened

  • Walt.id states that OID4VC session data can be stored in a distributed manner using solutions like Redis, enabling multiple issuer or verifier instances.
  • Walt.id states that the issuer metadata key credentials_supported was renamed to credential_configurations_supported and restructured from an array to an object.
  • Walt.id states that the verifier endpoint field policies was renamed to policyResults.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • SD-JWT VC and mDL support on OID4VC is a feature-level move in the open-source wallet/issuer toolkit space, relevant to Signicat's Wallet Hub and EUDI work but not a market-facing commercial event.
Evidence from the source (4 quotes)
  • “This enables you to run multiple instances of the issuer or verifier service while sharing the OID4VC session data among them.” source ↗

  • Walt.id lists did:key, did:jwk, did:ebsi, did:web and did:cheqd as supported DID methods for issuance.
  • Walt.id added a multiplatform logging service with dynamic reconfiguration and structured logging.
  • Walt.id published an Android sample project demonstrating key generation, signing and DID creation.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Release is an open-source developer toolkit update with EBSI and DID method coverage; limited direct overlap with Signicat's commercial eID brokering or signing lines.
  • The post states an ID verification integration offering via IDV partners, which overlaps with Signicat document IDV positioning on a generic level.
Evidence from the source (6 quotes)
  • “Below are all features available through v0.4.0 of the identity lib.” source ↗
  • “Methods supported: did:key, did:jwk, did:ebsi, did:web and did:cheqd.” source ↗

Walt.id announced that governments and businesses can use traditional IDV solutions from its IDV partners via the walt.id stack.

ID Verification integrations ↗

What happened

  • Verified users can receive identity credentials in VC, mdoc or SD-JWT formats, or soulbound tokens on EVM-compatible wallets.
  • On blockchain ecosystems, only a reference ID is placed in token metadata rather than personal data.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Walt.id's approach overlaps Signicat's document IDV and Wallet Hub offerings by bridging IDV results into reusable credentials, a limited but direct overlap.
  • The post names no IDV partners, customers, or deployments, so market traction cannot be assessed from this source.
Evidence from the source (4 quotes)
  • “The identity credential can be issued as a digital credential in different formats (Verifiable Credential, mdoc, SD-JWT) or even as a Soulbound Token (SBT) to any EVM-compatible crypto wallet.” source ↗

  • Walt.id states that issuance and presentation signatures are created inside the KMS provider's environment.
  • Walt.id states that all KMS integrations are open-sourced via its Community Stack.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Walt.id's KMS integration addresses key custody for wallets and signing, a capability area adjacent to Signicat's Wallet Hub and trust services; the post itself makes no claim about Signicat.

Walt.id announced that Microsoft ID Credentials can be used within its open-source ecosystem starting on the post date.

Microsoft Entra Verified ID integration ↗

What happened

  • The integration was open-sourced via The Community Stack.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • Low direct overlap with Signicat's core eID brokering, IDV and signing lines; relevance is limited to verifiable-credential interoperability with a Microsoft ecosystem.
  • Open-source, self-hosted positioning may compete with Signicat's wallet and orchestration offers for developers building VC issuance and verification.
