proof-cryptographic-error

An error occurred during the cryptographic preparation phase, before verification can be attempted. This includes infrastructure failures such as key loading, algorithm support, or malformed cryptographic data.

List of possible causes for this error.

  • The cryptographic key could not be loaded or parsed
  • The signature algorithm used in the proof is not supported by this implementation
  • The verification method URL is malformed or inaccessible
  • The verification method data in the controlled document is corrupted or invalid
  • Required cryptographic libraries or dependencies are missing
  • The key format is unsupported or corrupted

List of possible solutions to resolve this error.

  • Ensure the verification method URL is correctly formatted and accessible
  • Use a supported signature algorithm for the proof
  • Provide a valid and properly formatted cryptographic key
  • Verify the controlled document contains valid verification method data
  • Check that the key file is readable and in the expected format
