What is Glide Identity?

Glide Identity is a next-generation authentication solution designed for the AI era. It provides highly secure, seamless authentication by combining multiple security layers including cryptographic verification, network intelligence, and advanced biometrics.

How does Glide Identity work?

Glide Identity uses a multi-layered approach to verify user identity:
  • Network signals and analytics to detect suspicious patterns
  • Device-based cryptographic verification
  • Real-time risk assessment using multiple data points like device age, location, and usage patterns
  • Optional biometric authentication

What makes Glide Identity different from traditional authentication?

Unlike conventional methods that rely solely on passwords or SMS codes, Glide Identity:
  • Works seamlessly across WiFi and cellular networks
  • Is phishing-proof by design
  • Provides real-time fraud detection
  • Offers a frictionless user experience
  • Uses AI to adapt to emerging threats

Why is Glide Identity needed now?

With the rise of AI-powered attacks and deepfakes, traditional authentication methods like passwords and SMS codes are becoming increasingly vulnerable. Glide Identity provides enhanced security that's specifically designed to combat modern threats while maintaining a smooth user experience.

How does Glide Identity protect against AI-powered attacks?

Glide Identity uses multiple verification layers that work together:
  • Network signal analysis to detect suspicious patterns
  • Device-based cryptographic challenges that are extremely difficult to compromise
  • Real-time risk assessment using multiple data points
  • AI-powered threat detection to identify and block sophisticated attacks

Is Glide Identity compatible with my existing systems?

Yes, Glide Identity is designed for easy integration with existing security infrastructure. It supports various deployment options including cloud and on-premise installations, and works across different platforms and operating systems.

How does Glide Identity ensure user privacy?

Privacy is built into Glide Identity's core design:
  • Zero-knowledge architecture
  • No storage of personal data
  • Encrypted communication channels
  • Compliance with global privacy regulations
  • User consent management

How quickly can I implement Glide Identity?

Glide Identity provides APIs and SDKs for quick integration into web, mobile, and enterprise systems. Our developer documentation features clear guides and code samples, helping you seamlessly embed Glide’s solutions into your user flows.

Can Glide Identity help prevent SIM swap fraud?

Absolutely. SIM Swap Detection taps into real-time telecom data to detect if a user’s phone number has been transferred to another SIM. This early-warning system helps businesses thwart account takeovers before they happen.
