Onfido

A leading AI-powered identity verification provider, now part of Entrust, serving global enterprises across financial services, mobility, gaming, and other regulated industries.

Onfido is an AI-driven identity verification and authentication platform that enables businesses to verify the identities of their users through a combination of document verification and biometric analysis, including facial recognition and liveness detection. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in London, Onfido serves a wide range of industries including financial services, mobility, gaming, and healthcare, helping organizations onboard customers securely while reducing fraud and meeting regulatory compliance requirements. The platform analyzes government-issued identity documents and cross-references them with biometric data to confirm that the person presenting the document is its legitimate owner. Onfido has established itself as a leading player in the identity verification market, competing with companies such as Jumio, Socure, and IDEMIA. Its Real Identity Platform combines document verification, biometric checks, and passive fraud signals into a unified workflow, allowing businesses to tailor the level of assurance to their specific risk tolerance and regulatory environment. The company has served thousands of clients globally and processed hundreds of millions of identity verifications. In 2024, Entrust completed its acquisition of Onfido, integrating Onfido's AI-powered identity verification capabilities into Entrust's broader identity-centric security portfolio. Onfido continues to operate as a distinct brand and platform within Entrust, extending Entrust's reach into digital identity verification and enabling a more comprehensive suite of identity and access management solutions for enterprise customers worldwide.
