Biometrics
Traditional methods of identity proofing using personally identifiable information (PII) is no longer adequate due to the numerous data breaches of such sensitive information.
Verifying previous addresses, phone numbers and mother’s maiden names is outdated and insufficient. Layering biometrics on top of specific types of PII verification and government issued IDs can dramatically improve user identity assurance. Contactable utilises numerous biometrics to deliver this assurance:
