ID.me Identity Verification

What ID.me Identity Verification is

ID.me Identity Verification helps organizations verify people so they can provide access to government and commercial benefits and services. It offers remote online, virtual in-person, and in-person proofing. Online checks can use physical IDs, mobile network operator data, and fraud and compliance checks. Document images are examined with machine vision, AI, and a proprietary rules database; liveness detection and machine learning compare a selfie with the image on a government ID. In-person verification is offered through a partnership with Sterling at retail kiosks using government documents. After verifying, a person can reuse that verification at other organizations where ID.me is integrated. The service says it aligns with NIST 800-63-3 IAL2/AAL2 identity proofing and authentication standards. Integration options include Identity Gateway, verification APIs and SDKs, SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, and OpenID Connect; native iOS and Android SDKs are documented. ID.me says personally identifiable information is encrypted with AES-256 and user consent is required before data is released to a relying party. It offers email-ticket or chat support, not phone support. Pricing is available on request.
