Standalone product overview

Identity Verification

A dedicated product, separate from the Integrity Advocate proctoring platform.

This overview explains, internally, what we are building: the levels of assurance the product delivers, the real situations it serves, the experience a person moves through to prove who they are, and how one verification becomes a credential they reuse everywhere. Every screen runs in the user's mobile browser, with no app to install.

1 Levels of assurance

Match the proof of identity to the risk of the service

An organization decides how much certainty each service needs. Integrity Advocate maps that service to an assurance level, then asks the user for only as much evidence as the level requires. More sensitive services simply require stronger proof.

NIST IAL2 is the U.S. government standard for high confidence identity proofing (National Institute of Standards and Technology, SP 800-63). It is the strongest tier the product offers.
2 What we verify, and where it is used

One verification, several proven attributes

A single check can confirm more than one thing about a person. Each verified attribute unlocks a real commercial situation, which is where the standalone product creates demand.

How the invitation reaches them

The organization triggers a request and the user receives it through whichever channel fits the moment, or the verification is embedded directly inside another SaaS or web application. Every path opens the same secure, mobile web experience.

Configurable by assurance level. The steps a person sees flex to the level the organization requires (Section 1). A low assurance check can be a single evidence step, while high assurance runs the full IAL2 sequence, including SSN. They always stay in the browser, start to finish.
4 Reusable access

Verify once, then breeze through everywhere

Once a person is verified, that credential can be reused at every service that trusts it. This is the moat: the more places that accept an Integrity Advocate verification, the more valuable it is to the user and the harder it is to replace.

Built for high-value groups

Adoption wedge

Verify an affiliation once and reuse it across every participating site. These communities have the strongest reason to adopt and carry a single credential, which is exactly how a verification network takes hold.

5 The identity wallet

Every verification, in one place they control

The wallet is the home for those reusable credentials. A person keeps them together and authorizes their release to any partner in seconds, instead of proving the same status over and over at every site.
