A secure credential management system (CMS) receives a document over the internet from an issuing institution and stores the document in a credential repository in an inbox associated with the person to which the document pertains. The CMS notifies the person that a document pertaining to him or her is at the credential repository. The person can then go to the credential repository, verify his or her identity, view the document, and create a permission for a third party to view the document. The CMS notifies the third party of the availability of the document along with a password to allow the third party to view and download the document. The institution cannot delete the document once the document has been sent to the credential repository, but can view the document and issue a corrected document if necessary. The user cannot alter the documents or create counterfeit documents.
