Systems and methods for creating a verified digital association

1. A computer-implemented method for creating a digital association, comprising:

receiving association data comprising identifiable features of a first user and a different second user, the association data created through at least a first certified device of the first user and a different second certified device of the second user;

cross-confirming by validating, through both the first certified device and the second certified device, whether the association data is valid to verify the digital association of identifiable features of the first and second users;

in response to the validating, generating the digital association between the first user and the second user by digitally signing the identifiable features when the association data is determined to be valid; and

storing the digital association on a public ledger comprising a database.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first user is different from the second user, and the first certified device is different from the second certified device.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the association data comprises at least a photograph of both the first user and the second user together.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the validating further comprises:

cross-confirming, through the first certified device and the second certified device, that the association data has not been tampered.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a first user-generated item generated through the first certified device, the first user-generated item comprising the identifiable features of the first user and the second user; and

receiving a second user-generated item generated through the second certified device, the second user-generated item comprising the identifiable features of the first user and the second user.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the first certified device digitally is configured to sign the first user-generated item to generate a first digital identity, and the second certified device is configured to digitally sign the second user-generated item to generate a second digital identity.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

verifying the first certified device belongs to the first user; and

verifying the second certified device belongs to the second user.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the digital association comprises a cryptographically signed digital artifact created by both the first certified device and the second certified device.

9. A system for creating a digital association, comprising:

a memory storing multiple sequences of instructions; and

a computer hardware processor configured to execute the sequences of instructions which, when executed, causes the computer hardware processor to perform:

receiving association data comprising identifiable features of a first user and a different second user, the association data created through at least a first certified device of the first user and a different second certified device of the second user;

cross-confirming by validating, through both the first certified device and the second certified device, whether the association data is valid to verify the digital association of identifiable features of the first and second users;

in response to the validating, generating the digital association between the first user and the second user by digitally signing the identifiable features when the association data is determined to be valid; and

storing the digital association on a public ledger comprising a database.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the first user is different from the second user, and the first certified device is different from the second certified device.

11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the association data comprises at least a photograph of both the first user and the second user together.

12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the validating further comprises:

cross-confirming, through the first certified device and the second certified device, that the association data has not been tampered.

13. The system of claim 9 , further comprising stored sequences of instructions, which when executed by the computer processor, cause the computer processor to perform:

receiving a first user-generated item generated through the first certified device, the first user-generated item comprising the identifiable features of the first user and the second user; and

receiving a second user-generated item generated through the second certified device, the second user-generated item comprising the identifiable features of the first user and the second user.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the first certified device digitally is configured to sign the first user-generated item to generate a first digital identity, and the second certified device is configured to digitally sign the second user-generated item to generate a second digital identity.

15. The system of claim 9 , further comprising stored sequences of instructions, which when executed by the computer processor, cause the computer processor to perform:

verifying the first certified device belongs to the first user; and

verifying the second certified device belongs to the second user.

16. The system of claim 9 , wherein the digital association comprises a cryptographically signed digital artifact created by both the first certified device and the second certified device.

17. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium is provided including instructions that, when executed by a computer hardware processor, cause the computer hardware processor to perform a method for creating a digital association, the method comprising:

receiving association data comprising identifiable features of a first user and a different second user, the association data created through at least a first certified device of the first user and a different second certified device of the second user;

cross-confirming by validating, through both the first certified device and the second certified device, whether the association data is valid to verify the digital association of identifiable features of the first and second users;

in response to the validating, generating the digital association between the first user and the second user by digitally signing the identifiable features when the association data is determined to be valid; and

storing the digital association on a public ledger comprising a database.

18. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the first user is different from the second user, and the first certified device is different from the second certified device.

19. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the association data comprises at least a photograph of both the first user and the second user together.

20. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the validating further comprises:

cross-confirming, through the first certified device and the second certified device, that the association data has not been tampered.
