Efficiently onboard employees, partners, and customers through identity credentials which can be issued and verified, ensuring reliable self-service enrolment and access. Organisations can use Microsoft Entra Verified ID to issue credentials and attributes to users, following the interoperable Verifiable Credential Data Model. This results in a portable digital identity that users can share as needed, enhancing flexibility and security.

Microsoft Entra Verified ID addresses the challenges of securely managing and verifying identities in a hybrid and collaborative world. It enables organisations to remotely onboard, issue, and verify digital identity credentials for employees, partners, and customers providing seamless access to the high value applications and resources they need. By streamlining onboarding and access, businesses can achieve faster time-to-hire, quicker time-to-productivity, and instant resource provisioning. Simplify collaboration with external partners by verifying credential without the need for multiple accounts. Additionally, self-service capabilities can be enhanced to mitigate impersonation risks and empower users to manage accounts and recover passwords quickly.
