Taktikal and Veriff partner to offer enhanced security for digital signatures

By Delisha Fernandes

Taktikal has announced its partnership with Veriff, a global identity verification provider, to offer enhanced identity verification capabilities for customers worldwide.

With this partnership, Veriff adds an extra layer of safety and security to Taktikal’s automated onboarding and workflow processes through the strengthened authentication of digital signatures.

“Strong identification is the foundation for establishing trust in signatures, contracts and customer onboarding, especially in high-risk industries such as finance and insurance,” said Valur Thor Gunnarson, CEO at Taktikal. “We needed a partner that could provide best-in-class identity verification technology to ensure the strongest identification confidence in regions where mobile e-iDs are not as widespread.”

Taktikal’s Smartflows solution allows organisations to build, visualise, and automate their customer-facing processes in one platform, such as contracts, and onboarding solutions with built-in tools for Know Your Customer (KYC) and regulatory compliance.

The technology verifies the identities of its users and links them directly with digital signatures. Veriff strengthens the security of Taktikal’s signatures through its streamlined, AI-powered identity verification technology and helps ensure compliance by qualifying them as Advanced Signatures (AES) uniquely linked to the signer.

“The use of digital signatures in onboarding processes and other business workflows has skyrocketed with digitalisation, and as a result, we have seen a rise in fraud attempts,” said Janer Gorohhov, Veriff co-founder and CPO.  “It’s never been more important for businesses across industries to be steps ahead of these bad actors and confirm the real identities of users signing documents. We are thrilled to partner with Taktikal and work together to help organisations deliver faster identity verification processing, less operational risk and more trust in common workflow applications.”
