In recent months, we looked at how identity proofing is changing and why current and very popular strategies are putting organizations at a greater risk for breach and increasing the odds their customer’s personal and identifiable data will be stolen and misused. We also talked about synthetic-identity fraud and the added challenges it presents.
In our final article about this topic, we look at smart strategies from three innovative organizations – GSMA, Early Warning Services, and Capital One – who are raising the security and privacy bar to enable organizations to leverage identity as the business enabler it truly is. All of these initiatives can dramatically change the identity landscape and should be applauded for their innovation.
Secure log-in using what you already have and globally applied
Why purchase additional technology or add additional ways to prove your identity, when you have everything you need in your pocket – your mobile phone. Imagine having one simple, safe, log-in without the need for a username or password, where you could authorize requests directly from your mobile phone, and trust that when you share data, it’s secure and fraud-resistant. That’s exactly what GSMA is doing with their Mobile Connect Solution. GSMA has worked with telecommunication providers and the mobile industry to eliminate multiple log-in details and lengthy registration processes, while easilyand securely verifying identity through your phone number. Mobile Connect lends itself to multiple application areas including authentication, authorization, and identity. Learn more.
