Introducing IRS Identity Verification

Today we're announcing the general availability of our IRS based Identity verification service. Since we couldn't get the IRS to directly integrate into the CipheredTrust API, we decided to try the next best thing, a proxy based service. With this service, users can leverage their IRS tax transcript as a source of trusted identity information. The service is described in full: https://www.cipheredtrust.com/using-irs/ With the option to both use the API or just generate information certificates, tax payers can finally make valuable use of the trust associated with their transcript information. Certificates are currently free!!! Imagine a future where you can prove your real name on twitter or your marital status on a dating app? well that future is here!!
