# Verifying Address Name Ownership

While the previous section describes how a DARP compliant application can verify if the contents of an ARD can be trusted, this doesn't indicate whether a DID represents the true owner of an Address Name. The DARP protocol will therefore support this through the following:

* Verified Address Name Ownership
* Address Name Registry

 Both these features are delivered by Decentralised Address Name Registrars.
