en.Wedoany.com Reported - iOCO SBT's DIMPL digital identity management platform, built on the ROC unified Vision AI platform, ensures data sovereignty through localized deployment, encrypted template storage, and multi-layer liveness detection. It has also helped MTN retail stores improve database integrity, reducing registration time from 20-30 minutes to 2-3 minutes, and cutting annual retail fraud losses from over $1 million to zero.
Digital identity shows potential in curbing fraud and theft while enhancing customer service, but concerns persist about data being misused for surveillance, exclusion, or falling victim to hacking. As biometric solutions accelerate adoption in banking, insurance, healthcare, and telecommunications, organizations are increasingly pressing for clarity on data control, storage location, and access permissions. Robert Falkner, Sales Manager at iOCO SBT, points out that these concerns are unfounded when adopting advanced identity management solutions with full data sovereignty and multi-factor biometric liveness verification.
Falkner explains that the ROC unified Vision AI platform, trusted by military, law enforcement, and global fintech brands, ensures data sovereignty through four pillars: localized and physically isolated deployment within the organization's infrastructure; full data encryption and access control; retention and deletion controlled autonomously by the organization; and no storage of original facial images—only encrypted biometric templates to reduce leakage risk. The platform ranks among the top in NIST evaluations, holds iBeta Level 2 PAD certification, complies with GDPR and ISO standards, and is MOSIP (Modular Open Source Identity Platform) certified, making it suitable for national identity infrastructure under sovereign state control.
The DIMPL digital identity management platform, built on ROC, integrates multiple AI capabilities: facial recognition, age estimation, deepfake and liveness detection, facial analysis, fingerprint recognition, latent fingerprint matching, iris recognition, tattoo matching, license plate recognition, vehicle recognition, object detection, and firearm detection. Falkner cites an example where the system can search a crowded street for individuals carrying specific attributes, such as a red backpack and a beanie. The platform provides fast and accurate biometric enrollment for KYC registration, converting selfies into secure templates and cross-referencing them with official documents, while reducing fraud and deepfake risks through liveness detection.
From an end-user perspective, interacting organizations do not need to share personally identifiable data; the data is locked and encrypted, and even if intercepted, the templates cannot be decrypted. Falkner emphasizes that DIMPL is built on ROC because the technology is best-in-class, offering customers complete peace of mind. iOCO SBT also embeds ROC technology into existing customer systems or databases via SDKs, making it part of workflows. Falkner notes that digital identity management is now embedded in processes—when an agent handles a customer opening a bank account or applying for medical aid, identity verification is already integrated. He points out that identity fraud and theft are rampant, with details like credit card numbers and ID numbers frequently hacked and traded, while the only real asset that cannot be stolen is a live face, making it a key identifier.
