Digital workforce credentials
Verify a person and their documents once
You manage a workforce that spans employees, contractors, and vendors, all inside one secured site. Give each person a digital credential they carry themselves, then verify who they are and where they’re authorized to go, at any gate, door, or login. No repeat checks. No central database of faces.
The challenge
One trust layer for every employer on your site
You’re managing a multi-employer workforce inside one secured perimeter, and every person on site carries certifications from different authorities. Paper and plastic badges can’t confirm who someone is, whether a clearance is current, or whether it’s been revoked. Indicio Proven gives each worker a digital badge: a cryptographically-signed credential, tied to the worker and their own device, verified instantly at any gate, door, or login.
Privacy by design. The biometric that locks each credential stays on the worker’s own device. You verify people without ever storing their biometrics, so there’s no central database to breach or misuse.
How it works
How digital workforce credentials work from onboarding to the door
Issue at onboarding
Issue each person an identity credential during onboarding, with a biometric captured and kept on their own device. Background checks and training records arrive as verifiable credentials that fill in enrollment automatically, so no one is retyping data from PDFs.
Set the rules
Certifications and clearances (site access, safety training, background clearance, equipment licenses) are issued as separate credentials, each signed by the authority that grants it. A simple governance file sets which issuers you trust and which areas and systems each role can enter. Access turns on only when the right credentials are present and current.
Verify in seconds
At a gate, door, kiosk, or login, the person shows their credential. Your verifier confirms it came from a trusted issuer and hasn’t been altered, then runs a quick liveness check against the biometric already on the credential. That last step stops borrowed badges, forgeries, and deepfakes.
Connect to your systems
The result drives the access-control system you already run, over standard protocols, so a credential check becomes a door or gate action with no new hardware. Where connectivity is patchy, verification works offline over Bluetooth or NFC.
Update and revoke instantly
When a certification lapses or is pulled, the credential updates or revokes in real time, so it’s caught the moment someone badges in, not at the next audit. Because the credential lives on the person’s device, you can reissue or revoke it remotely.
What sets it apart
Built for the way your workforce actually works
Portability
One verified identity, reused everywhere
The credential lives in the person’s own wallet and works across roles, employers, and sites. Verify once, then reuse it, instead of running a fresh check every time someone changes badges or moves between contractors.
Privacy
No central database of faces
This is the part people worry about, so it’s worth being clear: there is no central store of biometrics to breach or misuse. Each person’s biometric stays on their own device and is matched there against their signed credential. You confirm identity without ever holding the biometric, which also makes GDPR and similar rules far simpler.
Standards
Open standards, no lock-in
Built on open verifiable-credential and mobile-credential standards (W3C, ISO 18013), so it works with the systems you already run and connects through the APIs your HR and access platforms already expose.
Fit
Adds to your badge system, doesn’t replace it
You don’t rip anything out. This layer adds verifiable, revocable credentials on top of your current badge and access setup. Existing controls stay, and it fails safe: if a credential can’t be verified, access is denied.
Where it works
One model, many secured workforces
Any operation that runs on a mixed workforce and controlled access uses the same approach.
✓ Construction & major projects
Contractors, subcontractors, and safety certifications on one site.
✓ Healthcare & life sciences
Staff, locums, and credential checks across facilities.
✓ Energy, utilities & industrial
Clearances, equipment licenses, and restricted-area access.
✓ Ports, logistics & transport
A rotating workforce across terminals and operators.
✓ Events & venues
Large temporary crews stood up and stood down fast.
✓ Government & critical infrastructure
High-assurance identity with no central biometric store.
