+4.2.6.1 IAL2 Verification — Non-Biometric Pathway

4.2.6.1 IAL2 Verification — Non-Biometric Pathway

The IAL2 Non-Biometric Pathway provides verification methods that do not use an automated comparison of biometric samples provided by the applicant. This pathway can still involve the collection and verification of biometric data (e.g., visual comparison to a facial image contained on identity evidence performed by a proofing agent), but such comparisons are done through manual rather than automated means. Additional verification methods that do not require the use of automated biometric comparison are also included in the Digital Evidence Pathway requirements specified in Sec. 4.2.6.2. If provided as an option at IAL2, CSPs SHALL communicate their use of the Non-Biometric Pathway to all RPs that use their identity service.

For remote attended, remote unattended, and on-site unattended identity proofing, the CSP SHALL verify the applicant’s ownership of all pieces of presented identity evidence. For on-site attended identity proofing, the CSP SHALL verify the applicant’s ownership of the strongest piece of presented identity evidence.
Approved non-biometric methods for verifying FAIR evidence at IAL2 include:
Confirming the applicant’s ability to return a confirmation code delivered to a validated address associated with the evidence (e.g., postal address, phone number)
Visually comparing the applicant’s facial image to a facial portrait on the presented evidence (e.g., student or employee ID card) or in records associated with the evidence during an on-site attended session (i.e., in-person with a proofing agent), a remote attended session (i.e., live video with a proofing agent), or an asynchronous process (i.e., visual comparison made by a proofing agent at a different time)
Approved non-biometric methods for verifying STRONG and SUPERIOR evidence at IAL2 include:
Confirming the applicant’s ability to return a confirmation code delivered to a physical address (i.e., postal address) that was obtained from the evidence and validated with an authoritative source
Visually comparing the applicant’s facial image to a facial portrait on the presented evidence or in records associated with the evidence during an on-site attended session (i.e., in-person with a proofing agent), a remote attended session (i.e., live video with a proofing agent), or an asynchronous process (i.e., visual comparison made by a proofing agent at a different time). If the comparison is performed asynchronously at a later time, the CSP SHALL implement PAD and passive or active document presence checks to increase confidence that both the live applicant and physical documents are present during the captured identity proofing event.

Delivering a confirmation code to a physical address combined with the requirement to validate the address with an authoritative source provides reasonable deterrence against scaled, high-volume attacks on identity proofing processes and substantially impacts the time-to-value for attackers. For this reason, mailed confirmation codes are a viable option for identity proofing at IAL2 when biometrics or visual comparisons fail or alternative means are required (e.g., due to a subscriber’s limited access to technology or services). Such delivery methods remain vulnerable to interception by close associates and family members and to other schemes (e.g., mail-forwarding fraud). Organizations that assess a high likelihood and impact of such attacks should offer other methods of verification or apply additional mitigating controls.
