Credentials have been the norm for identity for decades, resulting in frequent hacks, data breaches and identity fraud. Even sophisticated multi-factor authentication (MFA) solutions still rely on credentials to verify a person’s identity. iVALT focuses on ensuring human identity through biometrics, but only in combination with other identifiers (or factors). Biometrics alone will soon be jeopardized by emerging AI deepfake threats.
Identity has two distinct challenges: proving Zero Trust identity for authorized access and enabling provable person-to-person communications identity in real time. iVALT solves both problems by allowing 5+ factors of identity to be captured on-demand. Person-to-person identity while on phone calls or text threads stops deepfake and social engineering callers in their tracks. iVALT uses the same authentication engine for both scenarios enabling fast implementation.
For decades, attempts to strengthen identity have largely been incremental, fixing flaws in previous solutions. This was true for passwords, then security questions, complex passwords and even 2FA. iVALT takes the best available technologies and combines them to provide an exceptionally accurate and secure solution. Each factor can be replaced as needed with stronger attributes — and all are available on your smartphone that’s with you 24/7.

Creating a sustainable identity verification solution requires a balance that is difficult to create and maintain between innovative technology and customer experience. iVALT enables the highest possible security through its 5+ factors of identity approach that is applicable for all use cases. Compatibility is attained by offering a simple integration to any existing authentication platform or IAM deployment and requires no infrastructure changes.
By focusing on biometrics as a starting point, iVALT enable a “1-click” user experience wherein all factors are captured and verified simultaneously. Through flexible APIs and SDKs, enterprises can implement iVALT in hours or days, not weeks or months. Users simply download, install and register the mobile app in 3 minutes.
iVALT’s Identity Validation Platform® consists of a SaaS-based authentication engine and a mobile app for capturing user biometrics surrounded by multiple unique identifiers independent from one another and verified separately. This provides a future-proof platform that is easily updated and deployed as new biometric and other identification modalities are developed.
iVALT uniquely provides the ability for users to control some factors of identity, creating much greater security. Specifically, enterprise admins can permit users to set their own geofences and time windows for identity verifications. With the use of a mobile phone for authentication, users are now more fully in control of their own identity without delegating it to every entity they have a digital relationship with. This is known as decentralized identity and it is the direction the identity market is moving.
Hackers rely on predictability and greatly prefer static identity factors that can be stolen. iVALT’s 5+ factors of identity linked with independent sources and verification processes, dynamic variables and step-up escalations make hacking exceptionally difficult.
