DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- TrueProfile.io, the global leader for the verification of professional documents, has announced their expansion into identity verification with the launch of a new service powered by IDnow AutoIdent. The new identity verification, TrueIdentity, addresses the needs of employers globally who want to add an extra layer of security to their hiring processes by verifying both the identity and the credentials of potential candidates.

TrueIdentity utilizes IDnow AutoIdent's cutting-edge facial recognition and AI technology to carry out the identity verification. The process is simple and delivers instant results; a TrueProfile.io member simply needs to open the IDnow AutoIdent app on their mobile device, follow the on-screen instructions to verify their identity document (such as a passport or ID card) and scan their facial profile at different angles.

TrueProfile.io's new development sets the standard for global recruitment by empowering employers to make swift, safeguarded hiring decisions while delivering a positive candidate experience. This method of identity verification is also highly utilized within the financial sector, including within a number of renowned banks in the EU to quickly, securely and innovatively onboard their customers while remaining legally compliant. 

To align TrueIdentity with TrueProfile.io's industry leading verification services, users will be provided with documentation of their positively verified identity known as an 'Identity TrueProof'. As with TrueProfile.io's other TrueProofs, this result will be securely stored on blockchain so that is forever owned, shareable and accessible by its owner.  

René Seifert, Chief Digital Officer at The DataFlow Group states regarding the new partnership:

"We are delighted to extend IDnow AutoIdent's trusted identity verification service to our Business Partners and Members to further encourage an environment where ambitious job seekers can build credibility and employers can make hiring decision they can rely upon.
