Conceptually similar to WebAuthn, it uses origin-bound cryptographic challenges to ensure that users only attest ownership of their phone numbers to legitimate relying parties. The protocol leverages network-operator- issued verifiable credentials (VCs) that cryptographically bind phone number ownership to a user's device. Applications present origin- scoped challenges that users sign using their VC, ensuring secure, domain-specific authentication and mitigating replay, relay, and phishing attacks- without relying on SMS-based one-time passwords (OTPs).}, }
