Linux Foundation Exam HFCP Topic 2 Question 29 Discussion

In Hyperledger Fabric, the identity solution that manages user identities and authenticates participants on the network is facilitated by Membership Service Providers (MSPs). MSPs are crucial for defining the rules by which identities are validated, authenticated, and allowed access to the network. MSPs handle the issuance of certificates and define the roles and permissions associated with participant identities, enabling permissioned interactions on the blockchain. This differs from Hyperledger Fabric CA, which primarily issues and revokes certificates as part of identity management but is used in conjunction with MSPs to provide comprehensive identity solutions within the network.
