Who’s Really Behind the Signature? Socure and Docusign Redefine Trust in Digital Agreements

Socure and Docusign have announced a strategic partnership intended to strengthen trust in digital agreements amid growing threats from AI-generated deepfakes, synthetic identities, document forgery, and account takeovers. The integration uses Socure’s AI-powered identity graph, drawing on signals such as email, phone, address, device, behavior, fraud history, and watchlists, to assess a user’s identity risk passively before additional verification is requested. Docusign’s Risk-Based Verification then adjusts the process accordingly, allowing lower-risk users to proceed with minimal interruption while applying measures such as document or biometric checks to higher-risk cases. The companies say the approach can reduce fraud, support KYC, AML, and sanctions compliance, limit manual reviews and post-signature investigations, and preserve a smoother experience for legitimate users by replacing broadly applied, higher-friction methods such as knowledge-based authentication with targeted checks.
