NIST IAL3 verification for mission-critical identity workflows
-
Identity verification through the IAL3 process typically requires having someone present on site; however, this can be costly and inconvenient for businesses. Instead of flying workers around or renting space to conduct sessions to validate IAL3 credentials onsite, CSPs now have an efficient remote verification option to validate credentials remotely.
HYPR's comprehensive identity verification solution meets IAL2 and IAL3 compliance by using chat, video, facial recognition with liveness detection and document authentication. Furthermore, step-up reproofing based on risk can also be enabled through this comprehensive solution.
IAL3 identity proofing
NIST offers three levels of identity proofing services. At IAL3, NIST requires a CSP agent to be present during verification sessions as well as specific levels of evidence; traditionally this was accomplished by flying workers in for in-person verification sessions which can be costly and inconvenient for remote employees.
Technology has enabled CSPs to meet IAL3 standards for remote workers unattended processes, saving money while satisfying auditor requirements while offering end users a seamless experience.
IAL3 verification processes use both documents and biometrics to authenticate identities, with advanced liveness detection technology used to compare live images against photos printed on documents, as well as biometric attributes securely linked with ID credentials to protect against SIM swaps or MFA bypass attempts. IAL3 tools help companies save both time and money while simultaneously decreasing fraud risks while making compliance with KYC/AML regulations easier than ever.
NIST 800-63A IAL3
Identity proofing requires superior-strength evidence in order to prevent fraud and impersonation, with features like biometric capture, device and software verification, step-up reproofing based on risk, as well as phishing-resistant authentication journeys and hardware authenticators that ensure safe authentication processes - unlike email OTP/SMS methods which have fallen prey to sophisticated attacks.
IAL3's process has also been designed to deter more sophisticated social engineering attacks by limiting evidence falsification, theft and repudiation - this can be achieved by mandating the presence of an experienced CSP representative during an attended IAL3 identity proofing session on site.
TrustSwiftly ID&V provides an efficient way of meeting IAL3 requirements at an economical cost by enabling a central agent to interact directly with applicants during identity proofing, via live video chat and facial recognition with liveness detection, document authentication and document submission. The solution allows for more scalable rollout through customized kiosks displaying no code Trust Swiftly pages that connect agents through video chat, facial recognition with liveness detection and document authentication.
IAL3 compliant solution
IAL3 requires that claimed identity attributes be collected and linked with an authenticator through a proofing process to provide additional assurances that those claiming to be employees or visitors actually are. This level of assurance is best suited to high-risk transactions where errors could cause serious disruptions, including accessing classified information or critical infrastructure.
Trust Swiftly's IAL3 compliant solution helps customers meet FedRAMP requirements while improving the user experience, cost savings, and security for their business. Utilizing document verification and facial recognition with liveness detection technology to verify identities presented for authentication helps mitigate fraud, spoofing, impersonation attacks, making compliance simpler while mitigating risk.
Our IAL3 process uses hardware designed to quickly capture identity documents and biometric attributes instantly and automatically, while additional security features such as watchlist screenings for individuals or entities suspected of terrorist activities, money laundering or fraud, address validation checks that confirm submitted addresses match official databases, as well as behavioral biometrics to detect suspicious actions that reduce account takeover risks are included as safeguards.

If your company sells to the government, it must adhere to various security controls. One such control requires verifying every individual with access. This process, known as NIST 800-63A IAL3 verification, can seem almost impossible for companies with distributed workforces due to traveling employees across multiple locations and booking hotels - something which quickly adds up and can reduce business momentum.
Trust Swiftly's hardware-based IAL3 solution provides remote workers with an affordable way to meet IAL3 requirements while meeting expensive in-person verification processes, saving both money and time while meeting requirements for this certification. Plus, with comprehensive auditable reports that can be shared with 3PAO auditors as well as high resistance against advanced spoofing attacks like presentation attacks and deepfakes; your team can be agile without compromising security!
