This is a research topic since more than a decade back. Microsoft and IBM have spent big bucks on developing products but AFAICT with very modest success. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/u-prove/ http://www.research.ibm.com/labs/zurich/idemix/ For dynamically generated claims this is technically trivial. For static credentials you need the quite intricate cryptography featured in the Microsoft and IBM schemes. Anders
