Facephi accelerates the digitalization of the air travel with verified identity and its KYP (Know Your Passenger) solution at the IATA World Data Symposium
13 March 2025 - 3:06AM
Facephi, a leading company in digital identity technology, has
reinforced its commitment to transforming the aviation sector at
the IATA World Data Symposium. At this key industry event, the
company showcased several solutions aimed at enabling a fully
digital air travel experience, aligning with IATA’s One ID
initiative, which seeks to eliminate airport frictionless through
verifiable credentials and facial biometrics.
Currently, passengers must verify their identity at multiple
checkpoints throughout a single journey, leading to delays and
increased congestion at airports. To address this challenge,
Facephi has developed technology that enables identity validation
before arriving at the airport, reducing wait times and ensuring a
seamless and secure travel experience. This innovation has already
been successfully tested in collaboration with IATA through a proof
of concept conducted last November.
A privacy-first approach that empowers the
user
Complementing other solutions that have proven to reduce
processing times by 40%, Facephi advocates for a decentralized
model that enhances security and privacy. By leveraging verifiable
credentials (VCs) and secure digital wallets, passengers have full
control over when and how they share their personal information,
ensuring compliance with global data protection regulations.
Facephi’s approach integrates advanced biometric verification
with strong customer authentication (SCA) technologies, enabling
fast, contactless identification at every checkpoint. From passport
scanning to generating a Type 1 Digital Travel Credential (DTC) and
creating verifiable credentials, travelers can securely store and
manage their digital identity, streamlining check-in, security
checks, and boarding processes.
Setting new standards for interoperability
By aligning with IATA’s core principles, Facephi ensures
interoperability standards between airlines, airports, and
government authorities.
With the creation of VCs at a Level of Assurance High
(Immigration Level) that can be used by government entities,
Facephi reaffirms its leadership in aviation digitalization.
The company’s strong commitment to this industry translates into
innovative solutions that not only optimize operational efficiency
at airports but also empower passengers by giving them greater
control over their digital identity.
