ID Dataweb, the leader in cross-channel identity verification, is announcing a recent expansion of its relationship with IBM, integrating ID Dataweb’s identity verification workflows with IBM Security Verify, the low-friction, cloud-native, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) approach to identity access management (IAM). This collaborative effort will power organizations’ identity access with seamless credential issuing that operates within users’ existing workflows, mitigating Account Takeover (ATO) and Account Opening fraud, according to the companies.

“IBM Security Verify offers its users easy access to needed systems while securing sensitive applications behind a tight lock,” said Matt Cochran, COO of ID Dataweb. “Our identity verification workflows then ensure that the key is given only to the correct users. IBM’s innovative approach to IAM makes for smooth integration and a great collaboration, and our joint customers are the ones that truly stand to benefit.”

ID Dataweb’s flexible, IAL 2 certified identity verification workflows offer pre-built templates that help administrators tailor identity-proofing journeys to fit their enterprises’ unique needs. Now combined with IBM Security Verify, joint users benefit from intuitive orchestration tools for creating and managing the identity verification process, including password resets, multi-factor authentication evaluation, and new account creation.

Identity-proofing workflows work to verify and authenticate a user’s identity as they attempt to access a service or system. These workflows are designed to be flexible with an organization’s specific security requirements, allowing enterprises to craft the digital experience their customers demand, according to ID Dataweb.

“By leveraging ID Dataweb with IBM Security Verify, our joint customers can orchestrate valuable identity verification capabilities—including helping to streamline fraud prevention,” stated Milan Patel, senior product manager, IBM Security Verify. “We look forward to leveraging the ID Dataweb platform to create even more advanced functionality for organizations as our decentralized identity and verifiable credentials capabilities orchestrate portable, verified, and user-centric identity.”
