Instantly authenticate identity

InstantID® helps you prevent identity theft before it strikes your organization. Searching both business and consumer records, it instantly authenticates both companies and individuals and identifies any potential risks that are associated with them. In addition to InstantID®, LexisNexis® Risk & Information Analytics Group also offers two companion products. InstantID® Q&A supports multi-factor authentication requirements using an interactive, knowledge-based multiple choice query process at the customer contact point. InstantID® CIP creates a turnkey compliance solution by adding extensive PATRIOT ACT compliance management features to our industry leading authentication tools.

Comply with the FACT Act Identity Theft Red Flags Rule and reveal patterns, practices, and suspicious activities that may indicate the possibility of identity theft. The LexisNexis® Red Flags Rule Report not only can protect your business and customers against the growing danger of identity theft and fraudulent activity, but you will also have a powerful solution that helps you address and automate important compliance obligations—at account setup and throughout the account lifecycle.

Conduct background checks that authenticate prospective employees' and business partners' identities with LexisNexis Screening Solutions. Our suite of solutions, including Applicant Screening, will help limit your liabilities while remaining fully compliant with federal and state laws.

Detect high-risk entities

Today, more than ever, your organization needs access to the most powerful and efficient watch list solution available. LexisNexis® and World-Check have joined forces to create a comprehensive Global Interdiction Solution that contains more than 800,000 unique profiles of potentially high-risk entities such as money launderers, fraudsters, drug traffickers, terrorists, organized crime members and sanctioned entities. Compiled from hundreds of thousand of international sources, the Global Interdiction Solution goes beyond traditional watch list screening to track PEPs (Politically Exposed Persons) and their relationship networks, helping organizations to effectively identify risky entities worldwide—giving you the ability to easily monitor an extensive collection of various global watch lists—while protecting your organization.

Screen applicants

Limit the liabilities associated with hiring and retaining employees, volunteers, and vendors. Applicant Screening is a comprehensive solution designed for organizations that require a full menu of background screening options, such as data sharing through XML integration which enables you to receive screening results through existing human resource software. It offers in-depth verification and analysis of high risk elements like education, employment history, criminal records, drug tests, and fingerprinting coordinated with the organization's job titles, location and decisioning criteria.

Research prospective business partners

Vendor Screening is a fast and cost-effective way to reduce risk and complete due diligence research on prospective vendors, suppliers, and business partners. This powerful tool gives you a complete picture of ownership, financial history and legal standing.
