Combating Identity-Based Threats in Today’s Digital Landscape
Traditional username-password systems are no longer enough. Threat actors can easily bypass them using stolen credentials. To effectively combat identity-based risk — especially during onboarding and credential recovery — robust ID verification is essential. RSA and ID Dataweb showcase how their secure enrollment and recovery workflows reinforce digital trust by requiring users to prove their identity via biometrics or government-issued IDs, all through a seamless, entirely digital process
“RSA remains a leader in security with its state-of-the‑art Unified Identity Platform,” said Matt Cochran (ID Dataweb VP). This integration enables one-click, no-code advanced identity proofing, ensuring fast and secure onboarding and recovery
Why It Matters
- Stops insider threats from the get-go: Verifying identity during onboarding helps prevent fraudulent access. IBM estimates insider-initiated attacks average $4.9 million in breaches
- Closes credential recovery loopholes: MFA fatigue and social engineering attacks (e.g., ALPHV on Vegas resorts) are thwarted when identity proof is required before help‑desk resets
- Enforces remote trust: Digital workforce needs remote identity proofing — no more hassle of in-person verification.
How It Works
- Credential Enrollment: New users prove their identity using biometrics or official documents — fully remote and secure.
- Credential Recovery: Users regain access only after re-verifying their identity digitally.
- OIDC Integration: Seamless implementation via RSA My Page using OpenID Connect
Unified Platform, Unified Security
These ID verification workflows are part of the RSA Unified Identity Platform, which consolidates authentication, authorization, identity governance, and lifecycle management to both prevent identity fraud and accelerate trusted access
