<h3>“At Socure, we are committed to equipping our public sector partners with the information and tools needed to deliver an equitable experience for people accessing services online,” said Matt Thompson, senior vice president and general manager of public sector. “It is an honor to be recognized for a second year for our efforts, and we look forward to continuing to modernize our nation’s digital identity verification approach alongside our partners.”</h3>

<p>Socure’s ID+ Platform uses the latest AI advancements to empower public sector customers to verify digital identities without compromising equity or access. Socure’s solution increases auto-approval rates, including for traditionally hard-to-identify populations like Gen Z, millennial and new-to-country individuals; enables more effective fraud prevention; and reduces the need for manual reviews, saving valuable time and money. Last year, Socure released a <a href="https://www.socure.com/resources/ebooks/digital-identity-101-a-playbook-for-state-and-local-cios">playbook</a> to help state and local governments create robust digital identity programs, fight fraud, and address the issue of equity.</p>
