# Decentralized Ecosystem Governance (DeGov)

## Indicio automates the rules for your decentralized ecosystem for quick and simple administration.

Every decentralized identity system requires established rules for its users. This includes specifying who within the system is permitted to issue credentials and what credentials are necessary for particular actions. DEGov offers an easy method for system operators to modify these rules and implement system-wide updates.

### Organization benefits

* Increased efficiency in creating and governing your decentralized identity solution.
* Offline functionality. Most systems require checking in with a governance authority before acting; Indicio’s system allows for caching the latest rules and enables actions when you don’t have a constant connection.
* Efficiently manage the entire decentralized identity solution and push system-wide changes with automation.
* Reduce liability for both the organization and users of the solution with built in rule-setting and automation. Indicio’s solution is engineered to ensure there is no chance of someone accessing something they shouldn't be able to.

Set up the rules quickly and easily without requiring technical expertise using Indicio’s simple and intuitive interface.

## User benefits

* Offline functionality ensures that you can use your decentralized identity whether you have a connection to the internet or not.
* Fast interaction times with the decentralized identity system through automation.
* Easily set up systems to accept a variety of credentials and allow the user to get more functionality out of credentials they already have.
* Automated rules provide more guardrails and security for the user’s personal information.
