Wallet Attestation
A wallet attestation is a cryptographic proof, issued by a wallet provider, that a specific wallet instance meets the technical and security requirements of the EUDI Wallet ecosystem, such as running approved software and storing keys in a secure element.
A wallet attestation is presented alongside a credential, so a verifier can check not only who issued the credential but also that the wallet doing the presenting is a genuine, unmodified instance rather than a spoofed client. It is scoped to the wallet software itself, distinct from a verifiable credential, which makes a claim about the holder's identity or attributes.
