Trustswiftly's hardware-anchored IAL3 authentication workflow can provide the defense necessary to fend off such threats effectively and achieve both compliance and operational resiliency simultaneously.
NIST digital identity guidelines maintain their traditional three assurance levels IAL, AAL, and FAL but with additional modern requirements including comprehensive identity proofing processes, strong antiphishing authentication methods and secure federated identity practices.
NIST IAL3 Verification
NIST IAL3 standards mandate an intensive identity verification process designed to thwart impersonation attacks. This process includes proofing using high-fidelity evidence such as photos and videos, live video review sessions, step-up reproofing based on risk, as well as supporting phishing resistance measures and hardware-backed FIDO authenticators. Compliance with these standards can help businesses enhance customer experiences while simultaneously decreasing cyber liability costs.

NIST 800-63-3 IAL3 offers comprehensive verification with its hardware-backed FIDO authentication and phishing-resistant MFA and Passkey support, eliminating opportunities for cyber attackers to seize control of devices or accounts.
NIST compliance at its highest level is ideal for services requiring direct identification with real world identities, such as healthcare and financial services. A trained representative must interact directly with applicants to validate and compare biometrics against identity documents for accurate matches; alternatively a remote IAL3 process may also be used.
NIST IAL3 Compliance
NIST SP 800-63-4 offers a standard framework for identity systems. This document covers nist ial3 verification, enrollment, authentication and federation processes as well as privacy guidance and considerations.
TrustSwiftly is proud to provide nist 800-63-4 ial3 compliance - the highest level of identity verification - which requires on-site or remote attended identity proofing with verified biometrics, with strong limits placed on attack surface area to thwart sophisticated fraud or identity theft attacks such as SIM swapping or MFA bypassing.
IAL3 differs from IAL1 by verifying that enrollee is who they claim they are in real life. This is accomplished through comparison of facial images from identity evidence against live agents, and by collecting at least one biometric. Furthermore, this approach limits spoofing attacks and discourages using realistic silicone masks, helping reduce cyber liability insurance costs as well as operational expenses and increasing customer satisfaction while decreasing fraud risks.
FedRAMP High Identity Proofing
fedramp high identity proofing provides security claims with an additional layer of credibility by creating credible independent validation. A third-party assessment by a FedRAMP 3PAO adds extra clout and distinguishes authorized providers from competitors that make similar assertions without as rigorous a verification process.
Gaining authorization is essential to participating in the federal marketplace, enabling vendors to secure business that demands the highest security levels - from defense contractors and commercial markets alike, which require stringent data protection measures against modern threats.
FedRAMP High requires that systems have the capacity to verify users through various means, such as liveness detection support, mobile driver's license verification as IDV evidence, step-up reproofing based on risk, document authentication and liveness detection support. Furthermore, all data must be encrypted both during transit and storage with continuous vulnerability scans and incident reporting - it is the strictest level of FedRAMP authorization.
Easy to Implement
TrustSwiftly makes it simple for RPs to meet NIST IAL3 identity verification process requirements with its remote yet supervised ial3 identity verification software. This high-assurance level of identity proofing includes physical comparison of enrollee biometrics against images from strong identity evidence sources, facial recognition with liveness detection capabilities, document authentication services, document authentication services and much more. TrustSwiftly helps prevent impersonation attacks - one of the primary cyberthreats - as well as SIM swapping and MFA bypass attacks by securely binding biometric credentials securely to identity credentials that belong to each identity credential securely associated with identity credentials.
TrustSwiftly's IAL3 identity proofing process also assists RPs with lowering cyber liability insurance and operational expenses by reducing their attack surface. Unlike other identity proofing solutions, TrustSwiftly doesn't require kiosks or live agents be present with users; rather, users can easily verify their identities via video chat and/or face-to-face interaction with CSP representative via mobile device - helping RPs meet NIST IAL3 and FedRAMP high compliance requirements with minimal burden to customers and employees alike.
