IAL3 Identity Proofing For High Confidence User Verification
Quote from Quonyton on February 18, 2026, 2:40 amNIST 800-63 is an essential standard that governs how organizations verify identities and authenticate users, with recent revisions shifting the Digital Identity Risk Management (DIRM) framework from checklist-based requirements towards a dynamic risk-based model.
TrustSwiftly fulfills all IAL3 verification requirements through remote yet supervised identity proofing, meeting all modern security measures including anti-phishing authentication methods. TrustSwiftly meets these modern verification needs by meeting IAL standards with identity proofing services backed by TrustSwiftly's remote identity proofing platform - TrustSwiftly also adheres to AAL and FAL certification requirements with their identity proofing solutions for optimal IAL3 performance.
High-Fidelity Evidence Capture
NIST IAL3 is the highest level of rigor and requires an attended session with an agent, document validation against authoritative sources, biometric comparison with claimed digital identity to detect impersonation attacks and fraud, and biometric linkage securely with digital identities so as to decrease impersonation attacks and fraud. This rigorous process helps increase security while decreasing cyber liability risks such as SIM swaps or MFA bypasses by safely linking biometrics with digital identities in order to decrease attack surface area.
Traditional CSP sessions required individuals to visit physical offices to complete proofing processes; but modern technology enables trained agents to supervise each IAL3 proofing remotely via kiosk or turnkey kit. TrustSwiftly can be installed onto customized kiosks or deployed as remote kits in order to guide users through 15-minute proofing sessions, with live connection capability to verify devices and perform additional verifications outside the scope of IAL3.
So you can meet the high-strength requirements of NIST IAL3 while offering customers an exceptional digital age experience.
Cryptographic Chain of Custody
Chain of custody is an essential aspect of cyber forensic investigations to verifying digital evidence and ensure its integrity. Without one, attackers could easily alter data in ways that would be hard to detect; so having a secure cryptographic chain of custody helps prevent such manipulation while maintaining admissible evidence in court proceedings.
TrustSwiftly's IAL3 compliant solution fulfills the requirements for this high-assurance verification process by matching claimed identities against verified documents, biometrics and step-up reproofing based on risk. This helps reduce impersonation, fraud and SIM swaps as well as cyber liability insurance premiums and operational costs via reduced password reset requests. A secure kiosk provides face-to-face interaction between an RP and live agent while supporting chat, video streaming, liveness detection facial recognition facial recognition document authentication as well as storage and encryption of verified evidence collected during this high assurance verification process.
Defends Against Synthetic Identities
An effective NIST 800-63A IAL3 proofing process also relies on having a secure pathway for data transfer between physical and digital evidence. Secure, encrypted hardware offers unalterable digital records while protecting against fraudulent data entry. Traditionally this supervised element required an on-site visit from an agent, however modern SRIP protocols allow remote operators to guide enrollees through 15 minute verification sessions with the help of a shipped Remote Kit.
Organizations can utilize this solution to meet NIST IAL3 guidelines without incurring travel stipends, time away from work and manual processing costs. As a result, organizations have an easier and more secure scalable identity proofing framework that improves customer experience while decreasing cyber liability insurance premiums and operational costs through reduced password reset requests. It also helps organizations achieve higher Federation Assurance Levels (FAL), protecting against evidence falsification/theft as well as fake or compromised identities by restricting highly scalable attacks such as evidence falsification/theft while protecting against highly scalable attacks like evidence falsification/theft while protecting against fake/compromised identities - at minimum IAL3 proofing processes must verify a claimant through biometric comparison to verify ownership of claimed identity evidence claimed evidence presented for verification.
Reduces Operational Costs
Traditional in-person NIST IAL3 verification involves sending an agent out to meet their subject and supervise a session, which can be expensive in terms of travel stipends, lost productivity and logistical hassles. TrustSwiftly's compliant IAL3 solution eliminates these expenses through using an efficient remote process that only requires shipping out one hardware kit directly to subjects and one 15 minute supervised session per subject.
An efficient, 100% remote process for conducting an IAL3 verification eliminates the need for physical presence while protecting your subject's data in your hands. Furthermore, strong binding and robust IAL3 identity proofing capabilities such as face, fingerprint and dual iris capture for spoofing resistance reduce operational risk allowing for more effective, defensible identity verification that keeps up with modern fraud techniques.
