Regula, a global developer of identity verification solutions, has partnered with V-Key, a provider of mobile-first digital identity and app security technologies, to help organizations strengthen identity verification and authentication across mobile customer journeys in Asia-Pacific. The partnership aims to address rising risks from deepfakes, synthetic identities, and document fraud in mobile onboarding for banking and digital services.
Integration of Technologies
Through the partnership, Regula's document authentication, facial biometrics, and liveness detection tools — Regula Document Reader SDK and Regula Face SDK — will be integrated into V-Key ID, the company's digital identity platform for banks, telecoms, government services, and digital businesses. This integration combines Regula's technologies with V-Key's patented Virtual Secure Element (V-OS), multi-factor authentication, and mobile app protection technologies.
The combined offering is designed for regulated industries with strict security, compliance, and digital onboarding requirements. It aims to help organizations onboard verified users directly inside mobile apps while maintaining secure authentication across logins, sessions, and transactions.
Connecting Identity Verification and Mobile Trust
The partnership brings together two complementary parts of the mobile identity stack. At onboarding, Regula helps organizations authenticate identity documents from around the world, perform facial biometrics and liveness checks, and detect fraud attempts involving manipulated, forged, or synthetic identities. Once a user is verified, V-Key's mobile security infrastructure helps protect that trusted identity across future logins, transactions, and interactions inside the app through continuous authentication, adaptive threat detection, and zero-trust security controls.
Key Benefits
- Strengthen protection against AI-generated identity fraud
- Reduce onboarding friction and user drop-off
- Support eKYC and regulatory compliance requirements
- Maintain trusted authentication throughout the customer lifecycle
Responding to Growing Mobile Fraud Risks
Mobile platforms have become central to digital identity interactions and an increasingly attractive target for fraud. As digital services continue to scale across Asia-Pacific, organizations are facing growing pressure to strengthen their security measures. The partnership between Regula and V-Key addresses these challenges by providing a comprehensive mobile identity security solution that combines advanced document verification with robust mobile app protection.
