Sekura.id, a global leader in mobile identity services, has announced a strategic partnership with Netnumber to enhance digital identity and authentication capabilities. This collaboration combines Sekura.id’s cutting-edge services—SAFr Auth, SIM Swap protection, and KYC Match—with Netnumber’s advanced Number Intelligence as a Service (NIaaS), offering unparalleled value to clients and partners around the world.
The partnership merges Sekura.id’s expertise in mobile identity verification and fraud prevention with Netnumber’s robust number intelligence services. The aim is to provide businesses with a comprehensive solution for securing digital ecosystems while simultaneously delivering a seamless user experience.
Mark Harvey, CEO of Sekura.id, highlighted the transformative nature of this collaboration. “Today marks a transformative step in mobile identity,” he stated. “Formalising our partnership with Netnumber and integrating our cutting-edge services enables us to bring together the best of both companies’ expertise, giving businesses unique, unprecedented confidence in their user verification processes.”
The partnership promises several key advancements in mobile identity services. One of the standout features is the Mobile-to-Person Match (MPM), which enhances Sekura.id’s KYC Match service with Netnumber’s number intelligence. This development allows for more accurate identity verification, thereby reducing onboarding friction and increasing trust in the verification process.
Additionally, the integration of Sekura.id’s SIM Swap detection with Netnumber’s number intelligence will enhance monitoring capabilities to identify potential fraud risks. This collaborative effort enables real-time fraud prevention, allowing enterprises to act swiftly when threats of identity theft or account takeovers are detected.
The partnership also strengthens Sekura.id’s SAFr Auth service, which provides rapid and accurate number verification. Coupled with NIaaS, this enhancement allows businesses to verify customer identities more efficiently, ultimately reducing operational costs and improving security outcomes.
Steve Legge, CEO and President of Netnumber, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “While highly valuable, expanding digital identity footprints are complex to securely manage when tailoring experiences and supplementing identification. Our broad range of global phone number data services enables us to pinpoint in-depth, real-time information about a phone number, which is vital for creating more complete and high-value digital identity practices.”
Legge further elaborated on the importance of phone numbers in digital identity management, noting, “Phone numbers are present at almost every point of engagement with an end user and are in demand for a real-time response. Our existing services enhance customer experiences, streamline operations, and reduce costs, making this partnership a natural next step.”
By combining their respective strengths, Sekura.id and Netnumber are not merely filling gaps in security; they are redefining identity management itself. The integration of SAFr Auth, SIM Swap protection, and NIaaS promises to create a formidable shield against fraud while simplifying the user verification process for businesses.
As the digital landscape continues to evolve, this partnership positions Sekura.id and Netnumber as key players in delivering innovative, future-focused solutions that are ready to adapt to emerging threats in the realm of digital identity. To learn more, visit www.sekura.id and www.netnumber.com
