Identity Fusion, a premier vendor with 25 years of experience in the IAM and Cyber Security space, announced the integration of Dock Labs’ verifiable credential technology to bring legacy IAM systems into the next generation of identity. By leveraging verifiable credentials and ID wallets, Identity Fusion is eliminating redundant identity proofing, reducing fraud, and enabling secure, reusable identity verification across industries like finance and healthcare.

Today, when businesses onboard new customers or authenticate returning users, they often rely on slow, repetitive identity verification processes. A bank might send a customer to an ID verification provider every time they apply for a new product. An insurance company might force members to go through identity proofing again if they change plans. This frustrates users, increases friction, and drives up costs — organizations pay for verification every time, even for the same person. Worse, fragmented processes create security gaps, making fraud harder to detect.

Instead of making customers verify their identity every time they apply for a new product or service, verifiable credentials enable them to store a trusted, verified version of their identity in a secure digital wallet. When they need to prove who they are—whether to a bank, an insurance provider, or another organization—they simply present their verifiable credentials, which can be instantly trusted. This removes friction, reduces costs, and strengthens security by helping businesses verify identities faster and more accurately, making it much harder for fraudsters to slip through.

The impact is especially significant in industries like finance and healthcare, where frequent identity verification is both costly and critical for fraud prevention.

Dock Labs’ verifiable credentials are cryptographically secured digital identity records that cannot be altered or forged. What makes them unique is their ability to embed trust into the data—each credential is issued and digitally signed by a trusted organization, such as a government, financial institution, or ID verification provider, ensuring authenticity and integrity.

Digital ID wallets store these credentials, giving users control over their identity data while enabling fast and secure sharing across different systems. By reducing reliance on centralized databases, these wallets streamline authentication while enhancing security and privacy.

With over 25 years of experience in IAM, Identity Fusion has a proven track record of delivering secure and reliable identity solutions. As the industry evolves, the company is leading the shift from legacy IAM to the next generation of identity—one that is faster, more secure, and reusable. By integrating Dock Labs’ verifiable credentials and Digital ID wallets, Identity Fusion is driving this paradigm change, helping businesses modernize their identity systems while cutting costs, reducing friction, and strengthening security.

"At Identity Fusion, we believe the future of identity is secure, seamless, and reusable. By integrating Dock Labs’ verifiable credential technology, we’re transforming legacy IAM systems into modern, fraud-resistant solutions that reduce costs and improve user experiences. This partnership represents a major step forward in how businesses verify and manage identities, ensuring security without sacrificing convenience." - Bill Nelson, CEO of Identity Fusion.

"Verifiable credentials are redefining the way businesses handle identity, moving beyond outdated, repetitive verification processes toward a more seamless future. By integrating Dock Labs' verifiable credential technology, Identity Fusion is taking a critical step in modernizing legacy IAM systems, reducing friction, and strengthening security. This collaboration is a testament to how reusable, cryptographically secure identity can drive efficiency and trust across industries." - Nick Lambert, CEO of Dock Labs.
