Brazil Valid Implements Tender

Valid one of the leading providers of technology solutions for mobile identity data and payments implemented its fully compliant REAL ID drivers license DL and identification ID card solutions for the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands CNMI. By implementing the Valid REAL ID solution and improving physical card security CNMI is taking steps to secure the overall process of verifying the identities of its residents and issuing secure documents.Valid and the CNMI Department of Public Safety DPS worked with the U.S. Federal Government Department of Homeland Security DHS and Social Security Administration SSA throughout the process to ensure its certification package meets approval guidelines. Amid the rollout of the new REAL ID card CNMI will also offer a non-compliant card for those residents unable to meet the REAL ID requirements. Without a REAL ID compliant document citizens cannot access U.S. Federal Government facilities or board a commercial flight after October 1 2020.Valid trained CNMIs DPS licensing team to use its streamlined software which collects applicants information to issue secure credentials. The criteria required to meet REAL ID compliance includeEnsuring images are retrievable by the DMV if requested by law enforcementImplementing document security features on REAL ID cards to protect against reproduction and document fraudVerifying applicants various proofs of identity before issuing a REAL ID cardThe implementation process went incredibly smooth with very few problems said Mike Fox vice president and CCO of Valid. This is a reflection on the thorough planning testing and training that went into the project by the Valid and CNMI teams before the implementation occurred.The REAL ID regulations and policies are very intricate and nuanced and Valid has been a great partner and successfully led CNMI through this project said John Deleon Guerrero the Department of Public Safety systems administrator. The implementation timeline with Valid was a swift 12 months which is years shorter than the industry average. CNMI now has a secure system that can be easily updated with CNMI legislation changes moving into the future.Valid hosts the CNMI REAL ID solution in a secure virtual private cloud within an Amazon Web Services Inc. AWS GovCloud Region. The Valid implementation of its software within AWS includes cybersecurity monitoring using machine learning which pinpoints potential malicious activity and unauthorized behavior. The Valid software automatically initiates necessary measures to deal with suspicious activity.
