In our first blog, we introduced IDProof+, a rapidly deployable solution developed in collaboration with authID and integrated with Microsoft Entra Verified ID. It addresses critical vulnerabilities in remote identity verification, enabling organizations to confidently verify and maintain trust in remote individuals.
In this second installment, we explore why this issue is so pressing and why organizations can’t afford to ignore it.
Our global workforce has never been more diverse. Today, contractors, vendors, and external workers make up over 38% of the workforce. Combine that with the rise of remote work and inconsistent onboarding/offboarding processes, and the risks multiply.
Consider these sobering stats:
Remote work and contractor reliance have created a perfect storm–and hackers know it.
The threat isn’t hypothetical–it’s real. Here are a handful of recent real-world examples:
And the tactics keep evolving:
These threats underscore a critical truth: definitive identity assurance is no longer optional—it’s essential. IDProof+ delivers that assurance by binding an identity to a government-issued ID and biometric verification, ensuring organizations can trust who they’re hiring, onboarding, or supporting.
See IDProof+ in action and discover how it stops deepfake fraud and insider threats before they happen.
In our next and final blog, we’ll dive into three high-risk use cases—remote hiring, contractor onboarding, and help desk callers—and show how IDProof+ verifies users quickly and securely in each scenario.

Active Directory Domain Services relies heavily on LDAP, but not every LDAP connection is automatically protected against interception, modification, or authentication-relay attacks.
Learn why modern PAM strategies must extend beyond administrator accounts to include machine identities, cloud entitlements, Just-in-Time access, and Zero Standing Privilege. Dan Ross shares practical guidance for building a scalable privileged access program.
What C-suite leaders need to know about the upcoming Microsoft Entra ID SSPR changes, its operational risks, and how to mitigate them.
Auditors don’t just ask who has access today. Identity governance needs to be reframed as a continuous regulatory defense, not a periodic compliance exercise.
When effective change management is integrated with IGA implementations from the start, organizations reduce resistance, increase alignment, and ensure new identity processes take root in a sustainable, scalable way.
Learn about the challenges created by identity silos, the trade-offs between consolidation and governance, and how organizations can determine the most effective path forward.
