The Keyless IDV Bridge enables our customers to silently enroll users into Keyless with a picture of the user that has been collected from another source. We call this the "IDV Bridge" because it is often a bridge between the IDV (Identity Verification) process where customers collect a selfie during onboarding, and allows Keyless to authenticate that you are still dealing with the same person.
Typically clients use this solution in one of two ways:
Bulk upload of selfies - clients have collected a significant number of "selfies" or identity documents, typically during an onboarding or KYC process and want to use these selfies to passively enroll these users into the Keyless system to then support ongoing facial biometric authentication and prove the genuine presence of that user.
Single user selfie upload - clients connect our IDV Bridge solution to an existing selfie capture step in their onboarding flow thereby enrolling users into Keyless without having to add an additional step to the process, yet still allowing them to again authenticate.
Rapid Biometric Adoption: Organizations can rapidly increase biometric adoption rates by automating backend enrollment of new and existing users without requiring additional enrollment.
End-to-End Identity Lifecycle: Combines identity verification and authentication, eliminating weak points like usernames, passwords, or SMS OTPs.
Future-Proof Scalability: The IDV Bridge is vendor-agnostic, allowing integration with multiple IDV providers to meet diverse customer needs, regardless of size or scope.
Privacy-Preserving: Minimizes risks associated with storing personally identifiable information (PII) through Keyless’ unique privacy-preserving technology.
Cost Reduction: Enhances operational efficiency while lowering authentication costs.
User-Based Pricing: Keyless charges based on users. Unlike transaction-based IDV models, this offers a more cost-effective solution preferred by many financial institutions.
Image-Agnostic: Keyless can leverage images from either the existing IDV provider or a previous biometric authentication provider that the organization was using.
Customers can leverage the Keyless IDV Bridge technology in two ways:
IDV Bridge On-Premise - built on component known as "Keyless Agent" which customers install in their own infrastructure.
IDV Bridge SaaS - customers can enroll selfies via our publicly available api.
Keyless authentication via Mobile SDK is multi-factor by design - we are authenticating both the possession of the device and that the user is present when capturing their selfie. In relation to IDV Bridge the Client State is therefore generated and used as temporary key to allow a new device to be activated, provided the user successfully authenticates via a selfie during this flow. The client state thus needs to be securely stored after IDV Bridge enrollment to allow for a user to activate a new device.
