What criteria to look for when you look for a PVID provider?

Fraudsters favor identity theft. Its financial damage can quickly escalate: 14% of the attacked companies have suffered a loss of over 100 000 euros.
To counter this threat, the authorities offered to set a framework that would ensure remote identification. The ANSSI (national safety and security agency) defined this framework in 2021: it’s the Remote Identity Verification Providers (PVID) standard.

Should you be wary of remote ID verification solutions?

Even if we’re not aware of it, we go through ID verification almost every day. When we log into a mobile app, open a bank account, subscribe to an insurance policy or rent a car, we have to prove that we are the person who wants to use a given service.
