Jumio biometric-based identity proofing services for Microsoft Azure Active Directory

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 23 -- Jumio’s AI-powered identity verification solutions are now available to Microsoft Azure Active Directory External Identities for B2C customers. 

According to a statement, Azure Active Directory B2C is a customer identity access management solution.

  The integration equips Azure Active Directory B2C customers with an intuitive and biometric means of identity proofing new customers before issuing them login credentials.

This integration streamlines new account onboarding, simplifies KYC and AML compliance, as well as deters online fraud on a global scale.

"Before giving carte blanche access to your application, it’s increasingly important to quickly verify the authenticity of online users, especially in light of recent, large-scale data breaches," said Jumio CRO, Dean Hickman-Smith.

"We help modern enterprises, such as Azure AD B2C customers, verify the identities of remote users, so that companies can confidently greenlight legitimate individuals and assign them the appropriate access privileges."

Jumio establishes digital identity by requiring the user to capture a picture of a government-issued ID and a corroborating selfie with their webcam or smartphone.
