Solving the Global Identity Crisis

The internet is in the midst of an identity crisis. In the digital age, traditional “identifiers” (credit cards, government records, bank accounts) are too thin for investigative use and have often fallen victim to data breaches. This COVID-19 crisis has only exacerbated this problem.

In “Solving the Global Identity Crisis,” a July 2020 Raconteur Media article published in The Times, Robert Nendza, VP of Corporate Communications at Pipl, explained that “people actually have many identities on the internet in the form of online accounts and publicly accessible records. Individually these are weak identity elements, but together they form a strong corroborated identity.”

Pipl helps organizations solve the global identity crisis. As the world’s leading provider of online identity information, Pipl can turn a “weak” identity data point into a complete, corroborated profile including personal, professional, demographic, and social data from an index of over 25 billion identity records. Professionals trust Pipl online identities to help increase verification confidence and reduce investigative case resolution time.
