I’m preparing to promote four of my Identity Assurance Level 3 (IAL3) Bredemarket blog posts on my social media channels. You know, the posts that discuss in-person and remote supervised identity proofing. But I said to myself, “Self, why not re-promote them on the blog also?”
12/3/2020 IAL3 post
From the Bredemarket blog, December 2020:
“The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology has defined ‘identity assurance levels’ (IALs) that can be used when dealing with digital identities. It’s helpful to review how NIST has defined the IALs.”

7/19/2023 IAL3 post
From the Bredemarket blog, July 2023:
“If we ignore IAL1 and concentrate on IAL2 and IAL3, we can see one difference between the two. IAL2 allows remote, unsupervised identity proofing, while IAL3 requires (in practice) that any remote identity proofing is supervised.”

8/11/2025 IAL3 post
From the Bredemarket blog, August 2025:
“I’ve talked about Identity Assurance Levels 1, 2, and 3 on several occasions…..But as usually happens, IAL2 is yesterday’s news. Because biometric tech always gets harder better faster stronger.”

From the Bredemarket blog, September 2025:
“Governments aren’t the only entities that need to definitively know identities in critically important situations.
“What about banks and other financial institutions, which are required by law to know their customers?
“Now the bank assumed a level of risk by [accepting a Bredemarket client check in a remote unsupervised manner] especially since the deposited check would not be in the bank’s physical possession after the deposit was completed.
“But guess what? The risk was acceptable for my transactions. I’m disclosing Bredemarket company secrets, but that client never wrote me a million dollar check.
“What about remote supervised transactions at financial institutions, where you are not physically present, but someone at the bank remotely sees you and everything you do?
“It turns out that the identity verification providers support video sessions between businesses (such as banks) and their customers.”
