Appl. No.:

15/629464

Inventors:

- East Lansing MI, US
Tim Pletcher - East Lansing MI, US
Brian Seggie - Howell MI, US
Tony Ward - Fairfax VA, US

International Classification:

G06K 9/00
H04L 29/06

Abstract:

Illustrative methods, processes, and software remotely prove the identity of individuals fully compliant with identity proofing policies. The embodiments receive a request to verify an identity from an applicant device. The request includes an identification for an application to which access is desired. Then, the embodiments receive any combination of credit-based, clinical-based, and/or claims-based information corresponding to an applicant identified in the received request; send to the applicant device one or more queries related to the received combination according to one or more identity proofing requirements; receive, from the applicant device, one or more responses to the one or more queries where the one or more response comprise authentication information; determine a match between the authentication information and the received combination of any of credit-based, clinical-based, and claims-based information; and, based on the determination of the match, granting access to the desired application to the applicant device.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06
G06K 9/00

Abstract:

Illustrative methods, processes, and software are disclosed herein that remotely prove the identity of individuals fully compliant with identity proofing standards and policies. The embodiments may utilize photo identification and government identities using networked capabilities and capabilities within a process for end-to-end fully remote identity proofing followed by the automated provisioning and issuance of a trusted identity and optional credentials. In alternative manifestations the embodiments use automated government identity lookups including but not limited to digital imagery equipment with artificial intelligence and pattern recognition to detect fraudulent physical identification articles remotely, electronic scans of magnetic stripes and other electronic markers on government-issued identification media including but not limited to drivers licenses, government employee identities, passports, or other government-issued identities combined with real-time lookup in trusted databases. In alternative manifestations the embodiments use multiple biometric form factors for proofing, registration, recognition, and authentication.
