### Appendix

1. Potentially related initiatives

There are a number of initiatives, working groups, and protocols that could be relevant to self-sovereign biometrics at present or in
the near future,  whether as complimentary principles for implementation, potential workflows or mechanisms for implementation, or
sources of further guidance.

These may include efforts such as:

DID Auth[https://github.com/WebOfTrustInfo/rwot6-santabarbara/blob/master/final-documents/did-auth.md]
Known Traveller Digital Identity[https://www.weforum.org/reports/the-known-traveller-unlocking-the-potential-of-digital-identity-for-secure-and-seamless-travel]
NIST SOFA[https://pages.nist.gov/SOFA/SOFA.html]
FIDO Alliance protocols

Specific additional principles or best practices may be necessary to effectively preserve self sovereignty of biometrics in
implementations involving the systems above.Proposals such as the bridging of OpenID Connect and SSI protocols could also create new
paths for self-sovereign implementations of biometrics, and enable the use of new forms of strong authentication within privacy-
preserving architectures.
