You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.199.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 12:56, 12 May 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Identity verification management''', also known as '''identity proofing''', '''identity verification''' or '''authentication''', is the steps in the process of verifying that an individual is who they claim to be. It is a crucial component of [[identity management]] systems used in various sectors including finance, healthcare, government services, and online platforms. The primary goal of identity proofing is to mitigate identity fraud and ensure the security and privacy of sensitive information.

== Overview ==

Identity proofing involves verifying the identity of an individual through various means, such as presenting government-issued identification documents, answering personal questions, or using biometric data like fingerprints or facial recognition. The level of assurance required in identity proofing may vary depending on the risk associated with the transaction or access to particular services.

== Methods ==

Several methods are used in identity proofing, including:

# '''Document Verification''': This method involves examining physical or digital copies of identity documents, such as driver's licenses, passports, or national identification cards, to ensure they are authentic and match the information provided by the individual.

# '''Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA)''': KBA involves asking individuals a series of personal questions based on information only they are likely to know, such as previous addresses, financial history, or other personal details.

# '''Biometric Authentication''': Biometric authentication verifies an individual's identity based on unique physical characteristics, such as fingerprints, facial features, or iris patterns. Biometric data is captured and compared against stored records to confirm identity.

# '''Behavioral Analysis''': This method involves analyzing patterns of behavior, such as typing speed, mouse movements, or voice characteristics, to verify the identity of the user.

# '''Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)''': MFA combines two or more authentication factors, such as something the individual knows (password), something they have (smartphone, token, access card), or something they are (biometric data), to enhance security.

== Importance ==

Identity proofing is essential for preventing identity theft, fraud, and unauthorized access to sensitive information or services. It helps organizations establish trust with their customers, comply with regulations regarding identity verification, and protect against financial losses and reputational damage.

== Challenges ==

Despite its importance, identity proofing poses several challenges, including:

* '''Privacy Concerns''': Collecting and storing personal information for identity proofing purposes raises privacy concerns, particularly regarding the misuse or unauthorized access to sensitive data.

* '''False Positives and Negatives''': Identity proofing methods may sometimes produce false positives (incorrectly accepting an imposter) or false negatives (incorrectly rejecting a legitimate user), leading to user frustration and increased security risks. 

* '''Evolution of Fraud Techniques''': As fraud techniques evolve, identity proofing methods must continually adapt to detect and prevent new forms of identity theft and fraud.

== Regulatory Landscape ==

Various regulations and standards govern identity proofing practices, including:

* '''Know Your Customer (KYC)''': KYC regulations require financial institutions to verify the identity of their customers to prevent money laundering, terrorism financing, and other illicit activities.

* '''General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)''': GDPR regulates the processing of personal data and requires organizations to obtain explicit consent for collecting and using individuals' personal information for identity proofing purposes.

* '''National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)''': NIST provides guidelines and standards for identity proofing and authentication methods, including digital identity verification and biometric authentication.

== Future trends ==

Advancements in technology, such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, MFA and blockchain, are expected to shape the future of identity proofing. These technologies offer opportunities to enhance security, improve user experience, and streamline identity verification processes while addressing some of the challenges associated with traditional methods.
