How Verifyfed Works

A three-phase verification workflow built around the FSO's operational process — not a made-up product flow. Each phase maps to the NIST SP 800-53 controls your security program is accountable for.

1

Enroll

Control references: IA-1 · IA-4 · IA-12 · NIST SP 800-63-3 IAL2

Contractor self-service enrollment provides a documented, auditable identity proofing event that satisfies the initial identification requirements of your personnel security program.

  • Government-issued identity document capture (passport, driver's license, Common Access Card)
  • Liveness detection to prevent document fraud — not face recognition or biometric storage
  • Informed consent workflow with documented acceptance timestamp
  • Enrollment record immediately available to FSO dashboard with full audit trail
  • NIST SP 800-63-3 Identity Assurance Level 2 process alignment

Verify

Control references: IA-3 · IA-5 · IA-8 · AC-3

The verification engine cross-references identity attributes against authoritative sources, adds a clearance-awareness layer, and routes exception cases to your security officer review queue.

  • Identity attribute cross-reference — name, date of birth, identifier matching
  • Clearance-awareness API layer designed to integrate with DCSA eApp/CVS conceptual flows for clearance status context
  • Background investigation trigger logic — flags that require FSO action before access provisioning
  • Exception handling workflow: automated cases enter FSO review queue with supporting documentation
  • Every verification decision is logged with timestamp, actor, action, and outcome

Monitor

Control references: AC-2 · AC-17 · IA-11 · EO 13587

Continuous monitoring closes the gap between initial identity proofing and annual re-investigation — the period when insider risk exposure is highest and documentation is thinnest.

  • Re-verification trigger rules: contract transition, clearance change flag, anomaly detection, supervisor-initiated review
  • Continuous audit log generation — immutable, timestamped, SIEM-exportable
  • Insider threat signal aggregation: access anomalies, authentication events, and trigger flags feed your InTP case management system
  • DCSA/DSS inspection export: one-click documentation package in inspection-ready format
  • Integration with ServiceNow GRC and Archer for case management workflows

Audit Trail: Built for Inspection Readiness

Every identity event in Verifyfed generates an immutable audit record. The audit trail is not a reporting afterthought — it is the primary output of the verification process.

Immutable Log Format

Timestamp + actor + action + outcome format. Records cannot be modified after creation. Cryptographic integrity verification available.

DCSA Inspection Export

One-click export generates the personnel security documentation package DCSA facility clearance reviewers request most frequently. No manual file compilation.

SIEM Integration

Audit events exportable in standard SIEM-compatible formats. Integrates with your existing security operations center infrastructure for consolidated monitoring.

GRC Case Management

Direct integration with ServiceNow GRC and Archer. Verification events create case records, exceptions trigger workflows, and audit trail links to case documentation.

Re-investigation Tracking

Clearance re-investigation timelines, trigger events, and status transitions all recorded in the audit trail — supporting NISPOM continuous evaluation requirements.

Retention Controls

Configurable retention periods aligned to federal records retention requirements. Long-term archival with controlled access and chain-of-custody documentation.
