Theory of Pre-Employment Document Verification – ‘Trust, But Verify’

Consumer interactions are evolving. With each passing year, innovations in convenience, security and cost-effectiveness revolve around transactions conducted online. But as the benefits of online transactions multiply, so do the risks taken by both business and consumer. Hackers, scammers and identity thieves develop new ways to exploit both parties just as quickly as they adapt to protect themselves from attack. It is critical in today’s market for those participating in online business to take action to protect themselves, their consumers and their investments with solid identity verification and authentication tools.

When searching for the proper system to protect 먹튀검증, the difference between these two components can become obscured, especially in terms of government regulation compliance. In fact, the recent delay of the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) Red Flags Rule implementation date from August 1 to November 1 was a direct result of confusion over for whom, and to what capacity, compliance procedures should be implemented. It’s important for all business owners to understand and agree to the level of identity protection that is suitable for their needs.

In this article, we will explore the difference between verification and authentication, and how both are critical to your business’s overall success.
If you have ever been asked to display a driver’s licence, enter a Social Security number, or present other qualifying personal information before a transaction could proceed, you have experienced identity verification. In other words, identity verification is simply asking a consumer to present a form of identification out of his or her wallet to prove who they are.

While identity verification alone is required for some businesses and is simply an extra later of security for others, it is not foolproof. From fake IDs to intricately designed scams, those who would exploit businesses are quick to work around identity verification. And those workarounds mean that businesses, consumers and confidential information could be at serious risk. That’s where authentication comes in.
Identity authentication takes verification to the next level and is especially important when dealing with online transactions. When verifying a consumer’s identity in person, there can be nonverbal cues or simple inconsistencies that alert a business owner to possible identity fraud. However, those cues are invisible for online transactions. In the world of complete order automation, if the consumer can fool the security protocol, the consumer can put your business at risk.

Identity authentication not only requires consumers to provide qualifying identity information, it also requires the individual to provide information that is not easily stolen or guessed. These are sometimes called “out-of-wallet” questions and can ask anything from the names of family members, to the amount and frequency of a past loan payment. Out-of-wallet questions pertain to information only the genuine person could know.
