IDENTITY GATEWAY - TWO-MINUTE OVERVIEW

ID.me’s NIST 800-63-3 IAL2/AAL2 Credential Process.

Step 1:

Remote Document Verification

Scan driver’s licenses, state IDs, and passports, and apply machine vision and AI to verify authenticity of document.

Step 2:

Face Match

ID.me uses facial recognition to match the user’s selfie to their uploaded government ID.

Step 3:

Mobile Phone Verification

Verify that the SIM in the mobile device used for the verification is associated with the applicant’s identity and screen for potential indicators of fraud.

Step 4:

Multi-Factor Authentication

Secure accounts with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) options designed to accommodate all kinds of users.

Online, Virtual In-Person or In-Person

In addition to online identity proofing, ID.me offers in-person and virtual in-person options for users who struggle with online identity proofing or for situations where it is more convenient to receive in-person or virtual assistance.

With ID.me, the user has 3 options

1) Online Identity Proofing
2) Virtual In-Person Identity Proofing
3) In-Person Identity Proofing
