Microblink published a blog recap of a Trust Talks webinar discussing DHS's Remote Identity Validation Evaluation Rally (RIVR) results.
DHS Put Identity Verification Vendors to the Test. The Results Raise Some Tough Questions. ↗
What happened
- Seven commercial document validation systems were evaluated under standardized conditions, labeled DVS1 through DVS7.
- DHS collected photographs of 2,032 genuine state-issued identity documents from consenting volunteers.
- Brutsman stated that three of the seven systems had at least one performance measure approaching the equivalent of a coin flip.
Why it matters to Signicat
- Independent DHS benchmark results on document validation are a reference point for buyers evaluating Signicat's document IDV and ReadID offering.
- The article does not name the vendors; the one passing system and Signicat's position are not identified in the source.
