SoCandid Spotlight: Beyond NIST – Why Higher Standards for Public Sector Identity Verification Are Needed
Blog post from Socure
Socure’s identity verification and fraud risk platform has received Kantara Initiative certification for meeting NIST Identity Assurance Level 2 requirements, allowing federal agencies to use it for high-assurance digital identity services. NIST SP 800-63 permits remote or in-person identity proofing at IAL2 and aims to balance broad access for legitimate applicants with fraud detection. Socure says the certification can help agencies automate eligibility decisions, reduce manual reviews and fraud, and deliver government services more quickly. The company also notes that fraud techniques continue to evolve and argues that federal standards should be updated to reflect new technologies and threats, while positioning its platform as a way to make access to public benefits and services faster and less burdensome.
