Intro
Why Veriff

Online fraud is an ongoing and evolving threat, with banking firms and their customers proving to be prime targets for bad actors. Mitigating risk and ensuring regulatory compliance requires a security approach that is both rigorous and agile. However, at the same time, the onboarding process and ongoing user experience should be as seamless and swift as possible.

As such, moving from knowledge-based authentication (KBA) to automated identity verification (IDV) is key to satisfying customer expectations. Nonetheless, customers are rightfully concerned about their day-to-day security when using services, and nowhere is this more evident than at banks.

Compared to legacy security processes, selfie-based IDV is a much more secure approach, utilizing facial recognition technology in combination with government-issued identification to match a customer's face to their ID. IDV providers use a variety of networks, devices, documents, videos, biometrics, and behavioral information for maximum effectiveness.

With new firms starting up and developing at speed, quickly and efficiently verifying customer identities can be the difference between success and failure for neobanks.
