Daon, the award-winning global provider of identity assurance software and services announced today that its Trusted Identity Services offering is being expanded to thousands of locations throughout the U.S., bringing comprehensive background checking, credentialing and identity management services to state agencies and local businesses. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) has determined that Daon Trusted Identity Services (DTIS) complies with both state and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) regulations and standards. This is an important step in the process, allowing DTIS to begin providing these critical services. According to Tom Grissen, Daon’s CEO, “Florida has more than 750,000 residents who are required to obtain background checks in many different industries, including education, health and human services, real estate and construction, elderly care, financial services, insurance, and youth sports. These individuals will now have greater access to a more convenient, comfortable setting in which to submit their fingerprints and biographic data in order to obtain proper credentials.” He continued, “This state certification is just the latest demonstration of the capability of DTIS to provide a complete solution that includes the superior functionality of DaonEnroll™ for background checking and credentialing. Experience, enabling technologies and outstanding customer service are our biggest differentiators, and have enabled us to create a trusted relationship with our customers across all industries and government. This offering is being launched throughout the country and will eventually benefit citizens of all states.”
