The Trusted-Issuers-List Service provides an EBSI Trusted Issuers Registry implementation to act as the Trusted-List-Service in the DSBA Trust and IAM Framework. In addition, a Trusted Issuers List API to manage the issuers is provided.

### Why used the Trusted Issuers List Service ?
282
+
283
+
In an DSBA-compliant framework, the Verifier has to check for incoming [Verifiable Credentials](https://www.w3.org/TR/vc-data-model/) that the corresponding issuer is allowed to issue:
284
+
285
+
- the given type of credential
286
+
- with the given claims
287
+
- and at the current time
288
+
289
+
To do so, it requires a service that provides this information
Implementation of a Policy-Desicion Point, evaluating Json-Web-Tokens containing [Verifiable Credentials](https://www.w3.org/TR/vc-data-model/) s in an DSBA-compliant way. It also supports the evaluation in the context of i4Trust.

### Why use the DSBA PDP ?
308
+
309
+
A Policy Decision Point (PDP) is a mechanism that restricts access to resources by comparing them to a security policy. The
310
+
permit/deny mechanism ensure than only authorised users are able to access a given resource. This PDP for data spaces uses
311
+
well-defined policy structures found within JWTs, where the policy structure follows the reccommendations made by the Data
312
+
Spaces Business Alliance ((DSBA)[https://data-spaces-business-alliance.eu/]) and therefore ensuring that multiple organisations
313
+
are able to create policies in common across a data space.
The Trusted Issuers Registry provides both an EBSI Trusted Issuers Registry implementation and an iShare implementation.
405
+
The service provides data from an NGSI-LD compliant backend and configuration files.

### Why use the Trusted Issuers Registry ?
408
+
409
+
A Trusted Issuers Registry (TIR) is a decentralised registry for storing information about trusted issuers, such as public information and accreditations. The TIR stores all information within a smart contract in the form of Verifiable Accreditations, which are issued by Trust Chain participants or self-issued. Issuers can then designate proxies for credential verification that can be used to assess the validity of the credential or check whether it has been revoked.
