To address the rising demand around the globe for biometric-based identity assurance, numerous entities are investigating, planning, or deploying “Identity as a Service” commercial offerings.  Daon is currently engaged with several entities to develop platforms from which “fee for use” biometric and identity services can be offered. 

The target markets, scope, and specific approach being taken varies widely.  Due to the significant market advantage of being the first in a region to offer such services Daon is unable to discuss any specific engagements; however, these programs do have a number of keys elements in common:

• Registration of the individual (e.g. capture of biometric and biographic data) at a friendly and convenient commercial establishment versus a government owned and operated enrollment center
• Workflows and capture requirements easily tailored to fit the broadest range of supported programs (e.g. one government program may require only identity verification via inspection of identity documents while another may require collection and verification of finger, face, and/or iris biometrics)
• The absolute highest levels of assurance of the privacy and security of citizen’s data (a security breach of even a single identity could irreparably damage a company’s brand image).

The Daon product suite is being chosen because it uniquely and completely satisfy’s these common requirements.  Furthermore, Daon and its products offer numerous other benefits which are ideally suited to an “Identity as a Service” platform.  These include:

• COTS-based products with broad global utilization and appeal
