different and maybe a step in good direction, but there seems still a lot of problems before it reaches noted 'airport grade security'.
a) how to verify the person submitting id is owner of said id? 2fa method is suggested but this should likey track inputs as otherwise it'd be trivial to use stolen ID and social media photo. (cant do that at the airport can we? :D)
b) upon incidents regarding A and other things perhaps tracking should be applied so identities can get reputations. this is where it becomes tricky, because who's the authority. it is possible to tie keys into something like a blockchain to make a web of trust thats decentral, but i am unsure if it'd be a good idea to tie that back into ID card verification.
all in all do like the idea of better identity and using something more formal like actual ID papers and biometrics. its atough cookie, to tell if someone is who they claim to be over the wire!
it is a tough cookie indeed. We do have a 2FA option that compares a selfie with the picture embedded in the chip. There is also a liveness component part of that, in line with what is offered from other providers.
Some kind of tracking to tackle this is interesting. A public list of blocked certificates. Could probably be open or decentralized somehow, or the authority is ID providers like us and our peers
Not sure what you mean exactly - the product collects everything needed to verify the identity of a user. More like an api to handle the entire onboarding of a user
Think of it as Stripe for identity verification. The chip in passports and ID cards can be read and verified instantly via NFC, providing a highly secure and efficient way to verify user identities.
