ID.me Founder and CEO Blake Hall joined an important panel discussion at this morning's Federal Identity Forum & Exposition (FedID) in Baltimore, Maryland on the future of global digital identity wallets and frameworks. Blake explains that in addition to ensuring consumer choice and control over an individual’s verification journey, the solutions best positioned to protect consumers are ones that combine issuance and network into a single solution. Additionally, with the rising threat of scams and identity theft driven by generative AI, it is critical that we couple strong human controls with the use of tested biometric verification approaches to stop fraud. As the market-leading digital identity network in the U.S., ID.me is committed to simplifying how our 130+ million members securely prove and share their identity online. We are passionate about making it easier for all Americans to access services and benefits while reducing fraud.
Critical pieces of information there - ensuring consumer choice of who they want to share information with is #1, #2 is protection against identity theft and scams and stopping fraud and #3 I’ll add is our mission #NoIdentityLeftBehind ! Thanks Blake Hall for taking time to be part of this important panel!
