Every Credential Begins With a Verified Identity

NextgenID manages the full credentialing lifecycle, from supervised IAL3 identity proofing through cryptographic binding to a high-assurance credential of record. Whether we package and deliver verified enrollment data for your agency to adjudicate and issue, or we handle end-to-end credential issuance ourselves, every path starts at the same place. A verified identity you can stand behind.

Use cases NextgenID hero

// IAL3 CERTIFIED // KANTARA APPROVED

Triple-Factor Biometric Convergence.

A PIV card, a FIDO token, a derived mobile credential; each is a cryptographic object whose security depends entirely on the identity for which it was issued. Verify that identity through a document check or a selfie match, and the credential inherits that weakness. NextgenID starts at IAL3; face, iris, and fingerprint captured simultaneously under certified human oversight, packaged in a tamper-evident record. The credential that follows is only as strong as that foundation.

FROM IDENTITY TO CREDENTIAL

From Unknown to Certified Identity Credential in Under 7 Minutes.

We eliminate on-site time by completing the high-latency steps before the enrollee arrives. By the time they reach an identity station, the session is pre-configured, data is pre-validated, and issuance follows immediately after biometric capture.

1. Remote Pre-Enrollment

Enrollee completes data entry and document upload remotely. High-latency tasks are finished before arrival.

2. QR Check-In

Enrollee scans a unique QR code at any identity station for instant session authentication.

3. IAL3 Proofing

Face, iris, and fingerprint capture with document verification and validation, supervised by a certified agent. Completed in under 7 minutes.

4. Credential Issuance

Immediate issuance or encrypted enrollment package delivery, depending on your model.

Support for Federal and Enterprise Credentials

NextgenID supports a broad range of high-assurance credential types, including:

PIV, PIV-I / CAC

Hardened physical credentials for federal employees, contractors, and defense personnel. Issued by NextgenID as a Non-Federal Issuer, proven in air-gapped environments where standard solutions don’t exist.

  • HSPD-12 / FIPS 201-3 Aligned
  • On-Card Biometric Comparison
  • PACS & LACS Interoperable

FIDO / YubiKey

Phishing-resistant AAL3 hardware tokens for remote workforce security.

  • YubiKey & FIDO2 Support
  • Passkey Infrastructure Ready
  • Multi-Factor Hardware Binding

Derived Mobile (DMC)

PIV-level trust is saved in a smartphone secure element.

  • NIST SP 800-157 Compliant
  • Secure Element (SE) Storage
  • Over-the-Air Lifecycle Management

Chain-of-Custody and Audit Controls

Person working on laptop with identity verification system

From the moment biometric capture begins to the day a credential is revoked, every event is recorded, timestamped, and tamper-evident, giving your organization a complete, defensible record of who was issued what, when, and why.

  • Full traceability of every credential issuance, renewal, and revocation event

  • Automated lifecycle alerts, credentials don’t outlive their authorization

  • Defense against insider threats through end-to-end session integrity

  • Audit-ready documentation for CISA, IG, and GAO review requirements

"Complete Chain-of-Custody is the only defense against the identity crisis. Our platform manages the full lifecycle from IAL3 biometric enrollment to real-time revocation across the entire enterprise."

— Michael Harris, EVP & CTO, NextgenID
