Modernize Identity Verification for Rapid Onboarding

Identity verification is only as sound as the credential used. 1Kosmos identity proofing technology captures the information in the credential and looks to ensure the document is valid. As one example, 1Kosmos checks for common characteristics of the document to identify if a photocopy was used.

1Kosmos technology fuses AI and machine learning to review over 2,000 unique computer vision data models to verify an ID’s authenticity.

Additionally, our OCR technology can extract information from an ID and populate customer forms instantly. It can also read and compare the data on an ID’s NFC chip. This system reduces time and mistakes made during user onboarding.

In cases where a visual check of the data is required, 1Kosmos works with third parties to validate the captured data and the ID document. Or, if organizations would prefer, 1Kosmos can activate an API to verify the data from the Country Signer Certificate Authority (CSCA) or from an issuing authority such as AAMVA for US drivers licenses, to validate the document and the data.

1Kosmos automates identity verification and supports passwordless multifactor authentication.

The 1Kosmos platform guides users through a web or mobile onboarding journey, supporting various identity assurance levels for KYC and NIST 800-63-3 standards for Identity Assurance Level 2 (IAL2) and Authentication Assurance Level 2 (AAL2).
