Overview

The LSEG International PII Validation data source enables identity orchestration platforms to validate personally identifiable information (PII) for global user populations using authoritative sources. This data source is most commonly used within MobileMatch, our low-friction, document-free identity matching and verification workflow, allowing businesses to validate user-submitted identity attributes—such as full name, date of birth, address, and national ID numbers—against authoritative international data sources, then further tie the user to that identity by checking their possession of the phone associated with their record in authoritative sources.
