A top-tier global identity verification provider, recognized as a leader in AI-driven document and biometric verification, now operating under Entrust to extend enterprise identity management capabilities.
Onfido is a leading identity verification company that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to help businesses verify the identities of their customers. Founded in 2012 by Oxford University graduates, the company provides document verification, biometric facial recognition, and fraud detection services that enable organizations to onboard customers remotely while complying with KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) regulations. Its Real Identity Platform combines document analysis, liveness detection, and data source cross-referencing to deliver accurate, automated identity checks at scale. Onfido serves a broad range of industries including financial services, fintech, gaming, healthcare, mobility, and telecommunications. The platform processes identity verifications for customers in over 195 countries, supporting thousands of document types, making it one of the most globally comprehensive identity verification solutions available. The company built a strong reputation for its AI-driven approach, which reduces manual review overhead while maintaining high accuracy and fraud detection rates. In April 2024, Entrust — a global leader in trusted identity and secure transaction technology — completed the acquisition of Onfido, integrating its capabilities into Entrust's broader identity and access management portfolio. Onfido continues to operate as a distinct brand and product offering under Entrust's ownership, strengthening Entrust's digital identity verification capabilities and expanding its reach into digital-first customer onboarding use cases.
