<p>
The claims and security provided by this specification are independent of the data
secured and semantics provided by the [[VC-DATA-MODEL-2.0]]. This means that while the security
features of this specification ensure data integrity and authenticity, they do
not dictate the interpretation of claim data.


Implementers are RECOMMENDED to avoid conflicting values, especially with claims such as
`issuer` with `iss`, `id` with `jti`, and `credentialSubject.id` with `sub`.

Additional members may be present as header parameters and claims.
