RESTON, Va., Dec. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Regula, a global developer of forensic devices and identity verification (IDV) solutions, unveils the new Regula 7320 mobile document reader — a compact device designed to solve one of the industry’s most persistent challenges: the lack of a reliable, fully autonomous, and seamlessly integrated solution for identity verification outside stationary checkpoints.

Regula, a global developer of identity verification solutions, has released new insights from its 'Deepfake Trends 2024' study, focusing on emerging identity verification (IDV) trends within the crypto industry. The findings reveal that the crypto sector stands out as the only surveyed industry where deepfake fraud surpasses traditional document fraud in prevalence.

The joint solution offered by Sybrin and Regula enables banks and other financial institutions to seamlessly and securely onboard and verify their customers. This is achieved via combining Regula Document Reader SDK and Regula Face SDK with Sybrin's KYC (Know Your Customer) onboarding solution and orchestration engine. As a result, financial service businesses can establish a comprehensive identity verification workflow that includes advanced document checks, selfie capture, and liveness verification, all in line with the strictest regulations.

The identity verification industry has evolved significantly in recent years, expanding its scope beyond traditional Know Your Customer (KYC) processes. As IDV is becoming the new norm, more identity verification providers are vying for the attention of potential customers.

Applying for visas can be a pain point for many travelers. To address it, Sherpa came up with a solution for travel providers that guides their customers through the whole process. Given the fact that the success metric for such a service is application approval rates by governments, effective identity document processing was key.

Fraudsters use many techniques to forge a document, and photo manipulation or replacement is definitely not a rare one. For instance, they can morph a new picture and attach it to a valid document. The options are numerous, but they are generally related to visible primary portraits. However, the absolute majority of identity documents nowadays have secondary and/or “ghost” photos that may or may not be visible to the naked eye. Such additional portraits are added to documents in RFID chips that are read with NFC technology, in kinegrams, in lenticular images, or just placed anywhere and visualized under special lights (ultra-violet, for example).

Artificial intelligence can be used to create increasingly realistic and convincing deepfakes, making it more difficult to distinguish between genuine and manipulated content. Fake biometric artifacts like deepfake voice or video are perceived as real threats by 80% of companies, according to Regula’s survey.* And businesses in the USA seem to be the most concerned: about 91% of organizations consider it to be a growing threat.
