Abstract
In this research-in-progress paper, we encourage information systems (IS) researchers to consider the self-sovereign identity (SSI) approach to identity management. We highlight several issues with current data practices, then provide an overview of SSI by discussing the technology and actors involved. Finally, we call for more IS research on SSI to ultimately increase its adoption.
