We currently live immersed in an online world, which as it evolves requires us to create or implement new tools to keep us safe from everything that happens around us.

One of these tools is identity validation, which allows you to prevent fraud, identify any false identity and, in addition, gives you the certainty of knowing that a person is who they say they are.

Identity validation is the procedure by which it is verified that the data provided by a person is real. This process is becoming increasingly important, so that companies protect themselves and are clear with whom they are relating and doing business.

Identity validation allows you to reduce risks and bad experiences with collaborators, customers and suppliers.

According to data from the National Institute for Transparency, Access to Information and Protection of Personal Data (INAI) and the National Commission for the Protection and Defense of Users of Financial Services (CONDUSEF), from 2011 to 2015, claims for theft of identity increased more than 500%.

The figure mentioned above reveals the importance of having identity validation. Here are 5 reasons why you should implement identity validation in your company:

• Avoid fraud and identity theft
  
• Cost reduction
  
• Updated information
  
• Build trust
• There is no reputational risk

Having a partner like Keydok that provides you with an efficient and secure identity validation service is of the utmost importance. In addition to reducing risks, knowing the identity of the people who are part of your company, your customers and users, will help you to have a safer environment.
