Persona

From navigating global regulations to reducing manual work, many compliance teams face similar challenges. Here’s a brief guide to six common KYC challenges, plus ideas for tackling each one. 

Persona achieved FedRAMP Moderate Authorization through the 20x Phase 2 pilot, a new process for continuous security validation. We were one of 13 cloud service providers selected for the pilot and the only identity verification provider to achieve FedRAMP 20x Moderate Authorization. We also received Moderate Ready status under the traditional Rev. 5 authorization path. Thank you to everyone on the team for the hard work! Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dSen_aZN

When users used to sign up for Coinflow, they often had to reverify multiple times just to send a payment. So Coinflow turned to Persona to enable compliant identity reuse. With Persona Connect, Coinflow reduced drop-offs while providing a better user experience. 🚀 Read the story: https://lnkd.in/gFQ9KXvY

65% of organizations had at least one cybersecurity incident in the past year because of AI agents. As agentic AI moves from hype to reality, verification has become critical infrastructure. Our latest Verified with Persona explores what Know Your Agent (KYA) looks like in practice... and why it matters more than ever. Read the full article:

How do you make identity reviews faster without sacrificing decision quality? That's the question we kept hearing from KYC and KYB teams across industries. It's what led us to build Case Review Agents, our in-platform decisioning layer that’s designed to help review teams move faster while maintaining trust. Many AI review tools rely on API exports, meaning key signals from the verification flow don't carry through to the decisioning layer. Case Review Agents work differently. They operate natively inside Persona, reasoning over raw verification data, behavioral signals, and your full case history. No exports means no key context is lost. They're also calibrated to your team's actual past decisions, not a generic model or written SOP. We backtest against your historical case data before deployment and consistently achieve 90%+ accuracy matching against reviewers' past approve/decline decisions. Every deployment is also led by Persona's identity experts, who've supported hundreds of identity programs. We're opening early access to a select group of customers that are ready to define how AI-driven identity decisioning should work in practice. Contact your account team if you're interested in learning more. Read more about Case Review Agents: https://lnkd.in/gzX4P2FM

Fraudsters can now generate a convincing utility bill in minutes thanks to GenAI tools, readily available templates, and data breaches. This is problematic for a couple of reasons: 1. Organizations are collecting more supplemental documents to conduct risk assessments and comply with regulations. 2. Supplemental documents lack the security features that make government IDs harder to forge. Our fraud analyst breaks down key indicators that can help you spot fake or altered documents in our latest article:

🚀 We're partnering with Chainlink Labs to solve one of the biggest friction points in on-chain finance: repetitive KYC. Persona is now a trusted credential issuer for Chainlink's Cross-Chain Identity (CCID) framework. This means once investors verify with Persona, they can access tokenized assets across multiple platforms without repeating KYC.

In the guide, you’ll find foundational topics (including the importance of database structure), the top risk signals to monitor, and step-by-step instructions on automating decisions based on the results. https://lnkd.in/gtq9W79E

Crossmint just built an open payment solution for AI agents with Visa, Mastercard, Solana, Circle, Basis Theory, and Stytch: lobster.cash. In a guest post on our blog, Crossmint co-founder Alfonso Gómez-Jordana Mañas breaks down why you need to build security and compliance into agentic commerce from day one and how Crossmint uses Persona to help developers handle payments, verify users, screen transactions, and meet global AML requirements without building their own compliance stack.
