Build on regulated, secure, and fully compliant identity rails.
KYC Check embeds security and compliance directly into the API layer — enabling enterprises to orchestrate identity verification at global scale without regulator friction, architectural compromise, or operational latency.
Five regulatory frameworks. One unified trust fabric.
Anti-Money Laundering Directive 6
Continuous PEP, sanctions, and adverse-media screening with automated risk scoring and full evidence trails mapped to expanded criminal liability under EU AMLD6.
General Data Protection Regulation
EU-only data residency, zero-knowledge processing, and a programmatic Right to be Forgotten pipeline ensuring PII is purged on demand with cryptographic deletion proofs.
Service Organization Control 2 Type II
24/7 continuous infrastructure monitoring, automated vulnerability scanning, and independent auditor attestation of security, availability, and confidentiality controls.
Information Security Management
End-to-end ISMS covering risk assessment, asset management, access control, and incident response — audited annually by accredited certification bodies.
Electronic Identification & Trust Services
Native integration with European national eID schemes, Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES), and High-assurance identity flows for regulated financial onboarding.
AMLD6
The Sixth Anti-Money Laundering Directive expands criminal liability to legal persons and enforces stricter cross-border cooperation. KYC Check maps every verification event to AMLD6 evidentiary requirements.
Continuous PEP & Sanctions Screening
Deterministic matching across 1,400+ global watchlists with real-time webhook alerts, fuzzy-entity resolution, and automated re-screening cadences configurable per risk tier.
Automated Risk Scoring Engine
A rule-based and machine-learned composite risk model that scores each identity event against jurisdiction-specific typologies, producing regulator-exportable SAR rationales.
Expanded Criminal Liability Mapping
Every verification session, adverse-media hit, and sanction match is logged with immutable cryptographic signatures, ensuring legal-person liability coverage under AMLD6 Article 7.
Ongoing Monitoring & Recalibration
Post-onboarding surveillance triggers automated EDD escalations, periodic re-KYC flows, and risk-score recalibration without manual queue intervention.
GDPR
KYC Check processes biometric and identity data under Article 9 lawful-basis frameworks with EU-only data residency, pseudonymisation by default, and a dedicated Right to be Forgotten API endpoint.
EU-Only Data Residency
All PII-at-rest is stored exclusively within European AWS and GCP regions, segmented by tenant, with cross-border transfer governed by Standard Contractual Clauses and adequacy decisions.
Zero-Knowledge Processing Architecture
Biometric templates are transformed into irreversible mathematical vectors before storage. Raw image data is purged within 72 hours, leaving only encrypted reference hashes.
AES-256 Envelope Encryption
Every identity record is encrypted at rest with tenant-specific keys held in HSM-backed KMS infrastructure. Keys are rotated quarterly with automatic re-encryption of legacy ciphertext.
Right to be Forgotten API
A programmatic deletion endpoint that triggers cascading purges across primary storage, backups, logs, and derived analytics — returning a cryptographic deletion proof for audit.
SOC 2 Type II & ISO/IEC 27001
KYC Check operates under independently audited SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications, with continuous control monitoring, automated penetration testing, and strict third-party supply-chain governance.
24/7 Continuous Monitoring
Real-time telemetry across compute, network, and data layers with anomaly detection, automated alerting, and on-call escalation to our Security Operations Center.
Automated Vulnerability Scanning
Weekly SAST/DAST scans, container-image CVE audits, and dependency-chain analysis with SLA-bound remediation windows for critical and high-severity findings.
TLS 1.3 In-Transit Encryption
All API traffic is mandatorily encrypted via TLS 1.3 with cipher suites restricted to forward-secrecy-enabled configurations. Certificate pinning is available for mobile SDKs.
Independent Third-Party Auditing
Annual onsite and remote audits by accredited certification bodies. Audit reports, management assertions, and control matrices are available under NDA to enterprise customers.
eIDAS
KYC Check integrates natively with European national eID schemes and delivers Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES) with Substantial and High assurance levels for regulated financial onboarding under the eIDAS framework.
National eID Scheme Integration
Direct connectors to European national identity systems — including Belgian itsme, Estonian e-Residency, Finnish Trust Network, and German AusweisApp — for seamless cross-border identity assertion.
Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES)
QES issuance aligned with eIDAS Article 25, using HSM-backed signing keys and timestamping authority integration, producing legally equivalent signatures across EU member states.
Substantial & High Assurance Levels
Identity verification flows mapped to eIDAS assurance levels: Substantial (two-factor, remote) and High (in-person or equivalent remote with biometric liveness and document NFC).
Financial Onboarding Compliance
KYC Check eIDAS flows satisfy PSD2 Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) requirements and MiFID II identity-assertion standards for investment platforms and credit institutions.
