Creating and managing linked decentralized identifiers for an entity. A parent decentralized identifier of an entity has an associated parent private key. A determination is made that a child decentralized identifier is to be created for the parent decentralized identifier. In response to the determination, the parent private key is used to generate a child private key, and a child decentralized identifier is created by at least assigning the generated child private key as the private key for the child decentralized identifier. Each of the decentralized identifiers may be associated with a permission to another entity. The permission associated with the child decentralized identifier may not be broader than the permission granted to the parent decentralized identifier.
