According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a zero-knowledge proof-enabled privacy system for secure multi-party interactions in distributed computing environments. The system allows participants to verify authorization, eligibility, compliance, or correctness of actions without revealing sensitive underlying data, identities, or private inputs. By employing zero-knowledge proof cryptographic techniques, the invention enables one party to prove the truth of a predefined statement to another party while disclosing no information beyond the validity of the statement itself. The system comprises prover components configured to generate zero-knowledge proofs, verifier components configured to validate such proofs, and an interaction coordination layer that manages communication and workflow among multiple participants. The coordination layer supports both single-step and multi-step interactions, enabling complex collaborative processes while preserving confidentiality. The invention further supports privacy-preserving identity and attribute verification, allowing participants to demonstrate possession of credentials or rights without exposing personal or proprietary information. Reusable and composable proof artifacts are supported, reducing computational overhead and minimizing repeated data exposure across interactions. The system is interoperable with centralized servers, cloud platforms, and decentralized networks, and can be integrated with existing applications through standardized interfaces. By reducing reliance on trusted intermediaries and centralized data repositories, the invention enhances security, resilience, and trust. Additionally, the system enables auditability and regulatory compliance through cryptographically verifiable proofs without compromising privacy. Overall, the invention provides a scalable, extensible, and practical solution for secure, privacy-preserving multi-party digital interactions aligned with modern data protection principles."
