This validation method is a server-to-server process. The V-ID API extracts the fingerprint of a file from the code that the company software uses to create that file. This means that, for example, in the case of a typical dynamically generated PDF file, the V-ID API does not need to handle the file itself to still be able to validate the file. This validation process is completely non-intrusive to the normal workflow at the company.

Verification

After a file is validated, one part of the V-ID security process is done. The other side of V-ID’s mission to secure our digital world, is Verification. This is where files can be checked for authenticity.

This live demo shows how fast and easy V-ID file verification works. As you can see, a validated file can be verified in 5 seconds by any recipient with internet access.
