eKYC, or electronic Know Your Customer, is a method of conducting customer identification and due diligence through digital channels, allowing organizations to collect, validate, and verify identity information without requiring physical presence. It emphasizes a comprehensive approach to identity verification by combining various types of evidence such as documents, NFC chips, biometrics, and authoritative databases, rather than relying on a single technology. The process involves defining policies, collecting identifying data, validating evidence, verifying the applicant's link to the identity, and ongoing monitoring to ensure compliance with legal and risk standards. eKYC addresses unique fraud threats such as presentation attacks and synthetic identities by implementing specific controls and maintaining a robust governance framework. Regulatory guidance from bodies like FATF and the European Banking Authority outlines expectations for reliability, independence, and risk management within the eKYC framework. Despite its digital nature, eKYC requires a defensible program that allows for exceptions and is designed to handle both automated and manual processes to maintain security and compliance.
