Participant Registry

The Participant Registry (also known as Satellite) serves as the Trust Anchor for the data space. Each participant in the data space can verify in the Participant Registry whether other parties in the data space are trusted and compliant.

Participant Registry(role)

The Participant Registry as a role is responsible for the onboarding of participants in the data space. This role can also be performed by the Data Space Governance Body. The criteria for a Participant Registry as a certified role are detailed out on the Admission part of the iSHARE Trust Framework.

Participant Administrator(role)

The Participant Administrator is an optional role delegated by the Data Space Governance Body that validates and checks for compliance, determining if a party can be admitted to the data space/iSHARE network (and whether this is as an Adhering or Certified Party).
