Veriff published a blog post arguing that identity verification vendors should be verified by their customers.

Quem está verificando seu verificador? - Veriff ↗ · repeat of an earlier article

What happened

  • The post states that recent news raised questions about ownership structures, investor ties and geopolitical exposure of some verification providers, including links to Russia-backed entities.
  • The post states that Veriff builds and owns its full verification stack internally, from document verification and biometrics to liveness and device intelligence.
  • The post states that Veriff's backing by venture capital firms and investors is publicly disclosed.

Why it matters to Signicat

  • The post is a competitor-framed attack on the ownership and integration narrative of rival verification vendors, and it does not name Signicat.
  • The claim that Veriff owns its full stack contrasts with orchestration-based offerings, which Signicat's platform positioning would be compared against.
