Frequently Asked Questions

What is Identity Verification?

A secure and simple mechanism for an individual to verify another person is who they claim to be, in this case a citizen validating the identity of a police officer

How does it work?

When a law enforcement office arrives at a location, they show their identity via an app on their mobile device, displaying a digital version of their warrant card. This app generates a unique QR code that can easily be scanned by any member of the public via their own mobile device. This triggers an exchange and validation of cryptographically signed information which is used to verify that the presented identity is valid and current.

For extra security, a PIN number can also be generated. This can be crossed checked on the police force’s website.

How does Identity Verification benefit my force?
