The present invention is a novel method of storing and communicating information pertaining to the identity or other characteristics of entities that may transmit or receive information over digital communication networks. The method uses the principles of public key cryptography digital signatures to strongly associate assertions (in the form of pre-defined data structures) with uniquely identifiable digital certificates (or functionally similar cryptographically signed data structures). These assertions, together with the identified digital certificates and the associated digital signature, constitute an assurance. The present invention also includes a novel Assurance Registry (AR) that is used to store these assurances. The Assurance Registry is capable of generating and transmitting a cryptographically signed data structure containing any, all, or none of the assurances that may be stored in the Assurance Registry and associated with a specific digital certificate.
