Applicant Data Verification

Fast, Easy, Reliable Way to Verify Information Provided by Applicants to Establish Their Identity

Essential to national security and public safety, Digimarc Applicant Data Verification provides driver license/ID issuers with a proven solution to help confirm applicants are who they claim to be.

Secure Issuance and Minimize Fraud
Designed to meet REAL ID requirements and enhance the security of the issuance process, Applicant Data Verification confirms the accuracy of the information provided by applicants to establish their identity. As a result, issuers can prevent the use of falsified information to obtain a genuine driver license or ID. Applicant Data Verification is based on a proven, effective solution widely adopted by leading banks to protect against financial fraud. It is now being made available to DL/ID issuers who face the same concerns and need to protect citizens from ID theft, fraud and terrorism as well as enhance traffic safety.

Verification Using Trusted Data Sources
DL/ID issuers are able to immediately verify applicant information from documents such as U.S. Passports, birth certificates, permanent residence cards and others with the issuing agency or organization. The system provides quick access to a wide range of government and third party databases through a secure online data service. Results are returned with a pass/suspect score according to the likelihood that the information is accurate.

Multiple Levels of Security to Guard Citizen Privacy
Users of the system must be pre-certified and undergo background checks before being granted access. User roles are pre-determined which dictates the level of detail available to operators and investigators. All operators and their computers are authenticated at the time of logon using secure passwords and IP address confirmation. And, audit trails are tracked and maintained of all verification requests.

Investigator Edition
Digimarc Applicant Data Verification quickly flags potential identity theft and fraud and provides the details needed, with extensive drill down capabilities, to effectively investigate criminal activities and build a solid case. The back office process enables DL/ID issuers to implement “gated issuance” whereby the applicant is fully qualified before being issued a new DL/ID. The production order is held until cases of suspected fraud are resolved. Additionally, DL/ID issuers are able to scrub their entire database and find out-of-date information, mismatches, duplicates, and more. (For example, old addresses, people using the SSN of a deceased person, multiple people using the same SSNs, etc.)

Leveraging the Expertise of the Market Leader
Digimarc understands the entire issuance process and the customer service pressures facing ID issuers. Verification results are returned in a few seconds to minimize any wait times. Applicant Data Verification rounds out Digimarc’s complete, multi-factor authentication solution that also includes Document Authentication and Biometric Identification – giving you confidence that valid DL/IDs are only issued once to applicants who have been fully verified.
