Abstract

The present invention relates to methods and systems for identity verification. The method includes transmitting from a customer system to a customer connector server an identity verification request containing identification information for an individual. At the customer connector server, at least one verification service required for the request is identified and a data manager server is selected for each service. A verification service request is transmitted to each data manager server. At each data manager server, at least one data access service is identified and one data connector server is selected for each service. A data access service request is transmitted to each data connector server. At least one data source is accessed from each data connector server for each request. The identification information provided is then verified against identity information stored within the at least one data source and a response is generated and communicated to the customer system.
