It was a pleasure to be on @BBCWorld to chat with @BBCKarishma about Vaccine Passports. Standards are still months away - but early innovators will get regional solutions out sooner. #VaccinePassports #BBC
"It's going to take a while for us to arrive at some common standards that everyone can abide by,” @jumio CPO @bala_k says of vaccine passports. Watch his full BBC News interview with @BBCKarishma here: bit.ly/3A60A5a
5 years ago we laid out a vision for reusable identity - a TSA PreCheck-like experience for the digital world, globally.
Today that vision is real. selfie.DONE is now global. Verify once; Trust thereon.
True reusable identity. Global coverage. At scale.

Regulators are raising the bar for digital identity. It requires Biometrics + Liveness + multiple signals working together.
Proud the Jumio platform passed Bank Negara Malaysia’s eKYC assessment with zero findings.
That's Identity Intelligence in action.

The identity verification industry was built on a flawed premise: Verify someone once. Trust them forever.
Old thinking.
At Jumio, we introduced Identity Intelligence.
Identity verification checks who someone is once.
Identity Intelligence understands who they are over time.
Whether you’re in the compliance space or trying to figure out how to onboard new users, it is critical that you’re leveraging #identityintelligence, says Jumio’s Bala Kumar. When you’re doing it right, that’s when you’re being #jumiosmart.

The future of identity is here.
A massive milestone for Jumio and our incredible team delivering #selfieDONE - reusable identity done right.
One identity at a time. lnkd.in/gUMa8BV7 #reusableIdentity #IdentityIntelligence #biometrics #Innovation
Big validation moment for Jumio’s innovation. Our Liveness Detection tech just achieved ISO/IEC 30107-3 Level 2 compliance, independently validated against deepfakes & injection attacks.

I recently spoke with @CNBC about what the REAL ID milestone means for data security, identity assurance, and digital privacy. Strong protections must apply - on the ground and online.
