A device may receive application questions for an individual applying for credit with an organization. The device may broadcast the application questions to additional devices that have access to a distributed ledger for sharing credit worthiness information to cause at least one of the additional devices to generate an application response to the application questions and to process the application response using a smart contract. The device may receive one or more application responses that have been encrypted. Each of the application responses may include particular credit worthiness information relating to the individual. The device may decrypt the application responses. The device may determine a credit worthiness score for the individual using the application responses. The device may perform one or more actions that allow the device or another device associated with the organization to use the credit worthiness score to determine whether to approve the individual for credit.
