The verification process of a VC consists of validating its proofs using cryptographic algorithms, ensuring that it has not been altered in any way. However, within this process nothing guarantees that another entity can issue a similar and fully valid credential. This last point is where it is necessary to define a Root-of-Trust mechanism that allows verifying which entities have the «authorization» to issue certain types of credentials, thus avoiding that they may be impersonated.
There are currently different centralized solutions to solve this problem, such as: Trusted List (TL) and Public Key Directories (PKD). LACChain has defined a form of Decentralized Root-of-Trust, making use of the same concepts but through Smart Contracts, with which TLs and PKDs can be deployed, and associated with the verification process of a VC.
