Upgrade eliminates need for users to smile and prevents injection of AI-generated or manipulated images in identity verification process
LexisNexis® Risk Solutions has launched an enhanced version of LexisNexis® IDVerse®, offering innovative, next-generation document and biometric verification capable of detecting sophisticated deepfake and synthetic identity fraud, while enabling faster and more secure onboarding for trusted users.
The upgrade further increases verification accuracy and strengthens fraud detection while delivering a smoother and more enjoyable user experience, including:
- Conceal mode: encouraging more natural behaviour during selfie capture by removing the user’s image from the screen – something many find off-putting.
- Expressionless authentication: Advanced depth perception models eliminate the need to smile, improving accuracy and making the verification process more accessible for individuals with disabilities.
- Document liveness: Video-based ID document capture stops injection of AI-generated or manipulated images.
- Faster capture times: The platform reduces average capture times from 12 seconds to near-instant results and reduces the process from six to three steps.
The upgrades respond to the growing adoption of generative AI to create fraudulent identification, alter images and attempt account takeovers across digital commerce. Many organisations still rely on disconnected tools for device analysis, behavioural monitoring and identity verification – risking procedural gaps, raising costs and complexity and adding friction that can undermine both security and the user experience.
“Fraudsters innovate with speed and precision. Organizations can have both strong defenses and a seamless customer experience,” said Kimberly Sutherland, global head of fraud and identity, LexisNexis Risk Solutions. “This enhanced version of IDVerse delivers both. It enables efficient onboarding, sharper fraud detection and renewed trust at every stage of the customer lifecycle. We integrate innovative deepfake defenses and a more intuitive user experience, so organizations gain stronger protection without adding barriers for legitimate users.”
