authID, a provider of biometric identity verification and authentication solutions, has announced its inclusion in the Microsoft Entra Verified ID partner ecosystem as an Entra Verified ID Identity Verification (IDV) Partner. This certification expands authID’s potential reach across the global Microsoft customer base and strengthens its partnership momentum with MajorKey Technologies, an Elite Microsoft Partner. The integration delivers high-assurance, privacy-preserving identity verification at scale across the Microsoft ecosystem, allowing enterprises to validate that a digital identity is tied to a real, present individual.

Microsoft Entra services over 800,000 organizations globally, supporting over 1 billion monthly active users, and processing over 8 billion authentications daily. Certification means that authID’s solution has been rigorously vetted by Microsoft for security, interoperability, and compliance standards. This provides instant credibility with enterprise buyers and allows authID to deliver its IDV solution to the majority of global enterprise customers without custom development or security exceptions.

Addressing the Expanding Digital Identity Ecosystem

The certification comes at a critical time for enterprise security as reported losses from job scam fraud jumped from $90 million in 2020 to over $501 million in 2024, a 457% increase in four years. Gartner projects that one in four candidate profiles globally could be fraudulent by 2028. As enterprises accelerate digital transformation, identity verification has become a foundational requirement across hiring, onboarding, account recovery, and privileged access workflows.

Partnership Details

The inclusion in the Microsoft Entra Verified ID partner ecosystem marks a significant step for authID in expanding its market presence. The collaboration leverages the strengths of both companies to enhance identity verification capabilities.
