New partnership brings seamless high-assurance biometric identity verification to Microsoft Entra Suite, combatting the rise in AI-driven fraud.

DENVER, Sept. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- authID (Nasdaq: AUID), a leading provider of biometric identity verification and authentication solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with MajorKey Technologies, a premier identity security company and certified Microsoft Entra Suite services partner. Through this collaboration, MajorKey will bring authID’s innovative Proof technology to Microsoft customers worldwide, elevating their identity protection with industry-leading biometric verification designed to stop deepfakes and identity fraud.

This alliance comes at a pivotal time, as organizations face unprecedented challenges verifying the authenticity of remote job candidates and contractors.

In this partnership, authID and MajorKey are working together to help enterprises accelerate hiring timelines, ensure compliance, and proactively protect against emerging threats.

“The threat landscape has evolved dramatically, with bad actors leveraging AI-generated deepfakes to infiltrate organizations through fraudulent hiring processes,” said Rhon Daguro, CEO of authID. “By partnering with MajorKey, we’re uniting world-class biometric identity verification with unrivaled Microsoft Entra expertise, and empowering enterprises to hire remotely with confidence.”

authID’s Proof technology delivers advanced biometric identity verification in just 700 milliseconds with unparalleled accuracy. Its advanced capabilities detect deepfake attempts both in live camera presentations and hidden device injections, enabling enterprises to safeguard against fraudulent candidates, prevent insider threats, and meet strict compliance requirements while maintaining a seamless user experience.

“In today’s digital-first environment, identity stands as the true frontline of enterprise defense,” said Michael Yario, CEO of MajorKey Technologies. “Integrating authID’s Proof technology into Microsoft Entra environments enables organizations to outpace AI-driven fraud and strengthen remote hiring practices without sacrificing efficiency. This is precisely the high-assurance approach enterprises need to adapt and thrive.”
