Identity verification has moved far beyond regulated onboarding into account recovery, step-up verification, workforce onboarding, and age assurance. Fueled by generative AI, account opening and takeover fraud are surging through deepfakes, injection attacks, and AI-edited document images, while age assurance mandates and EUDI wallets reshape compliance. The 2026 KuppingerCole Leadership Compass on Identity Verification evaluates more than 25 vendors across three converging segments: Full-Service Identity Verification, best-of-breed Identity Verification, and Reusable Verified Identity. This webinar presents the key results and what they mean for buyers, in a market projected to grow from $22 billion in 2026 to $50 billion by 2030.
Guillaume Teixeron, Senior Analyst at KuppingerCole Analysts and author of the Leadership Compass on Identity Verification, will walk through the Leader charts and the evaluation methodology behind them, explaining which capabilities now separate Leaders from Challengers: layered deepfake and injection attack defenses, document forensics and NFC chip verification, eID and wallet integrations, and enterprise orchestration. He will examine how reusable verified identity is emerging as a distinct market segment, why organizations engage multiple vendors for coverage and redundancy, and share practical guidance for defining vendor selection criteria for your own identity verification strategy.
