LexisNexis Risk Solutions has introduced an enhanced version of LexisNexis IDVerse to improve document and biometric verification.

The new product is designed to detect advanced forms of deepfake and synthetic identity fraud while enabling quicker and more secure onboarding for verified users and customers. This upgrade addresses the increasing use of generative AI in creating fraudulent IDs, altering images, and attempting account takeovers within digital commerce environments. Currently, many organizations depend on separate tools for device analysis, behavioral tracking, and identity verification, leading to potential gaps in security measures that can increase costs, complexity, and user friction.

Improving the User Experience and Security

The enhancements are expected to boost verification accuracy and fraud detection while ensuring a safer and more pleasant experience for users. This will include:

• Conceal mode, which aims to encourage natural behavior during selfie captures by hiding the user’s image from view.
• Expressionless authentication: this improvement uses advanced depth perception models that do not require smiling, thereby increasing accuracy and making verification more accessible for individuals with disabilities.
• Document liveness: this feature involves video-based ID document capture to prevent the use of AI-generated or manipulated images.
• Faster processing times: the platform is anticipated to shorten average capture times from 12 seconds to near-instant results, and the overall process from six steps to three steps.

This product will provide a streamlined onboarding process along with enhanced fraud detection capabilities throughout the customer lifecycle. LexisNexis Risk Solutions plans to continuously integrate improved deepfake defenses and an easier user interface to help businesses strengthen their security without adding obstacles for genuine users.
