Highly flexible multi-channel process ensures digital identities are quickly and efficiently linked to holder’s ID documents and biometrics
Gemalto, the world leader in digital security, showcases at Mobile World Congress its
ability to enable Trusted Digital Identities that will unlock a new generation of secure and
convenient digital services. Leveraging the company’s unrivalled experience across fields
such as identity verification, biometrics and mobile services, Gemalto integrates all the
technologies needed to seamlessly capture biometrics and verify user identities, and
then digitize them securely. As a result, MNOs, OEMs and other enterprises will be able
to accelerate their digitalization strategies, launch new services, fight fraud and meet
relevant regulations.
Gemalto’s Trusted Digital Identity solutions encompass three fully integrated steps:
capturing ID documents, verifying their authenticity as well as the holder’s identity, and
then creating the Trusted Digital Identity itself. Gemalto’s approach enables customers to
use multiple channels in-store or online. Identity credentials - including ID cards, driver
licenses and passports- and biometrics, such as fingerprint and facial recognition, can be
captured using smartphones and tablets or high-end scanners. The company’s expertise
in biometric technologies and secure identity documents then ensures rapid and reliable
verification, speeding the customer acquisition process.
Gemalto’s fast multi-channel process enables MNOs and other service providers to
simplify and digitize their work flows. Operating costs are reduced and the customer
experience enhanced. Moreover, a Trusted Digital Identity can serve as a gateway for
subscribers to access multiple security-sensitive services such as mobile money, eGov
and online banking, allowing MNOs to participate in these fast growing sectors.
“MNOs and other service providers need to adapt to a rapidly changing business
environment,” said Guillaume Lafaix, SVP for Gemalto. “Delivering a combination of
security, convenience and efficiency, our Trusted Digital Identity solutions offer a highly
flexible approach to accelerating digitalization strategies.”
Visitors to Gemalto’s stand (Hall2 - Stand N° 2J41) at Mobile World Congress 2018 will
have the opportunity to see live demonstrations of the company’s ability to capture and
verify end user identity credentials and biometrics, swiftly and seamlessly, via multiple
channels.
