Service Desk Identity Verification

Verify service desk requesters before account recovery or credential changes.

Overview

Password resets and account recovery are frequent targets for impersonation and social engineering. The risk increases when agents rely on easily guessed personal details, apply different checks by channel, or need to support remote and unfamiliar users.

This solution defines verification checks for identity-related support requests, with additional checks for higher-risk actions. Staff can apply the same approach across relevant contact channels, and required records show how a sensitive request was verified rather than leaving agents to make ad hoc judgements.
