Identity can be verified at a range of moments in a customer journey, such as onboarding or the first payment, and does this by making connections between data points like an email, phone, address, IP, device or funding source.<\/p>\n<p>Conducting verification in this way boosts accurate decisions, lowers declines, reduces fraud, and improves customer experiences, Identiq claims.<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to how other identity systems use large databases of private and personal information, Identiq does not collect, share or store any user data. Its FAIR (Fully Anonymous Identity Resolution) technology leverages cryptographic protocols to obtain validation from other network members while maintaining privacy.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, Entr\u00e9e Capital took part in the<a href=\"http:\/\/member.regtechanalyst.com\/puresec-collects-7m-to-protect-serverless-apps\/\">\u00a0$7m Series A of serverless security company PureSec.<\/a>\u00a0The RegTech empowers organisations to build secure, serverless applications which have real-time protections.
