Our Migration Service Delivers
We provide a complete, audited migration path from legacy SSO to decentralized identity, ensuring zero downtime for your users and full compliance with your security policies.
Zero-Downtime Migration
Seamless user transition with parallel identity systems. Your existing SSO remains active while we onboard users to their new decentralized identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials.
Custom Integration Framework
We build adapters for your existing IdP (Okta, Azure AD, etc.) and downstream applications, handling the complex mapping of SAML/OIDC claims to Verifiable Credentials.
Compliance & Governance Controls
Maintain full oversight with automated policy engines for credential issuance and revocation. Built-in logging for all decentralized identity events to satisfy enterprise audit trails.
Post-Migration Support & SLA
Guaranteed 24/7 monitoring of your decentralized identity layer with defined SLAs for performance and support response times, ensuring long-term operational success.
Business Outcomes of DID Migration
Migrating from legacy SSO to decentralized identity delivers measurable improvements in security, compliance, and operational efficiency. Here’s what our enterprise clients achieve.
Eliminate Credential Breach Risk
Replace centralized password databases with user-held private keys. Breaches of your authentication server no longer expose user credentials, fundamentally removing a major attack vector.
Reduce Compliance & Audit Overhead
Shift identity proofing and data consent to the user's wallet. Automated, cryptographically-verifiable attestations streamline KYC/AML checks and GDPR consent logging.
Enable Cross-Platform Interoperability
Decouple user identity from your specific platform. Users can bring their verified credentials from other DID-compliant services, accelerating onboarding and improving UX.
Future-Proof Authentication Stack
Build on open standards (W3C DIDs, Verifiable Credentials) instead of proprietary vendor lock-in. Integrate seamlessly with emerging Web3 wallets, dApps, and decentralized services.
Cut Identity Management Costs
Reduce reliance on expensive third-party identity providers and the infrastructure to manage user directories, password resets, and single sign-on configurations.
Enhance Developer Velocity
Provide developers with standardized SDKs and APIs for decentralized identity. Simplify integration of secure auth flows without deep cryptography expertise.
Enterprise SSO to Decentralized Identity Migration Timeline
A structured, risk-mitigated migration plan from legacy SSO (e.g., Okta, Azure AD) to a self-sovereign identity stack using Verifiable Credentials and decentralized identifiers (DIDs).
| Phase | Timeline | Key Deliverables | Success Metrics |
|---|---|---|---|
Phase 1: Discovery & Architecture | 2-3 weeks | Identity Gap Analysis, DID Method Selection (did:ethr, did:key), VC Schema Design | Technical specification document, stakeholder sign-off |
Phase 2: Credential Issuer Development | 3-4 weeks | Custom Issuer Smart Contract, Credential Status Registry, Integration with existing HR/CRM systems | Issuer DID deployed, 100% test coverage, initial security audit |
Phase 3: Wallet & Verifier Integration | 4-5 weeks | Custom Wallet SDK/Embedded Component, Verifier Service API, Admin Dashboard MVP | End-to-end credential flow demo, < 2-second verification latency |
Phase 4: Pilot Migration | 2-3 weeks | Pilot Group (50-100 users) onboarded, Legacy SSO co-existence configured, User training materials |
|
Phase 5: Full Deployment & Sunset | 3-4 weeks | Full user migration, Legacy SSO decommissioning, 24/7 Monitoring & Alerting setup | 100% user migration, 99.9% system uptime, SSO costs reduced by 60-80% |
Ongoing: Support & Evolution | Post-launch | SLA-based support, Schema version management, Quarterly security reviews | Adherence to W3C standards, < 4-hour critical issue response time |
Our Migration Methodology
A structured, four-phase approach designed to migrate your enterprise identity layer from legacy SSO to decentralized standards with zero disruption to your users or operations.
Discovery & Architecture Design
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your current SSO landscape (SAML, OIDC) and design a hybrid architecture. This phase defines the integration points, token mapping strategy, and a phased rollout plan to ensure backward compatibility.
Hybrid Gateway Deployment
We deploy and configure our secure middleware that acts as a bridge. It translates W3C Verifiable Credentials and DIDs into familiar OAuth2 flows, allowing existing applications to authenticate via decentralized identity without code changes.
Credential Issuance & User Onboarding
We implement a seamless user migration flow. Employees claim their decentralized identifiers (DIDs) and receive Verifiable Credentials issued by your enterprise, migrating their access rights from the old directory to the new self-sovereign model.
Production Cutover & Sunset
We manage the final switch, decommissioning legacy SSO dependencies after verifying the new system's stability. Ongoing support includes monitoring, key rotation automation, and compliance reporting for the new identity layer.

Enterprise DID Migration FAQ
Common questions from CTOs and technical leaders planning to migrate from legacy SSO to decentralized identity (DID) systems.
A standard migration from an SSO provider like Okta or Azure AD to a decentralized identity stack takes 4-8 weeks. This includes discovery, DID method selection, credential schema design, smart contract deployment, and integration with your existing auth flow. Complex enterprise environments with multiple legacy systems may extend to 12 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan within the first week of engagement.
