    Vega: Zero-knowledge proofs for digital identity in the age of AI

    Microsoft Research has developed Vega, a system that uses zero-knowledge proofs to enable users to verify aspects of their digital identity, such as age or professional status, without revealing the underlying credential. This technology aims to address privacy concerns exacerbated by the rise of AI agents and the increasing need for secure digital verification. Vega generates proofs quickly on standard devices and is designed to integrate with existing formats like driver's licenses and EU digital identity wallets. AI
