About Us
Every 2 seconds there is a new victim of identity theft.
Identity theft is one of the biggest threats to establishing a trustworthy digital identity and to the technology industry. Especially in the upcoming financial technology services industry, also known as FinTech, identity fraud is a major issue with at least 5% of first-time customers being fraudulent. Navigating the line between compliance with regulations and effective technical solutions continues to be a big challenge.
We developed a software that will help companies overcome these challenges, by offering an easier and more efficient way to verify their client’s location and spot fraud.
Unveiler allows mobile developers to collect the user’s sensor data, and more specifically the RAW GNSS measurements, as proof of their identity. This data is then verified in the Unveiler API and returned as a cryptographically Signed Claim.
Unlike competing solutions in the market our solution utilizes RAW GNSS measurements in the Android OS. By not using IP address detection or network detection our product is usable in real time and immediately available on a global scale.
