ImageWare’s GoVerifyID-ForgeRock integration is now available on the ForgeRock Trust Network Marketplace along with supporting documentation and implementation information to enable easier integration of this solution.

Ben Goodman, Vice President, Global Strategy and Innovation at ForgeRock said that, “As the concept of digital identity has grown beyond employees, citizens and customers, to include services, devices and IoT connected ‘things’, ForgeRock’s unique identity platform has become pervasive across industries worldwide.
