Community Management

Overview​

In the BlockID Admin Console screen, administrators can add a new community under their tenancy for each of their clients. The default will be created for each tenant. Onboarding a new community (or client) enables the community to leverage all the features and functionalities of this platform yet maintain security by logical isolation of all service components. The tenant’s DNS name will be the same for each of the communities. The service components are listed below:

  • Core SDK / Base License
  • Passport OCR & MRTD Code Scanning SDK
  • Driver License OCR & PDF417 Scanning SDK
  • Biometric Face Recognition & Liveness Detection Module
  • Biometric Voice Enrollment Module
  • Identity Verification Services Module
  • Phone Number Enrollment Module
  • Email Enrollment Module
  • Social Security Number (SSN/SIN) Document Enrollment Module
  • Health Card Enrolment Module
  • Social Connect Enrollment Module
  • IOT Device Registration Module

Only Super administrators and Tenant administrators are allowed to create a community. When a first community is configured, it sets up the default authentication module, authentication scheme, a login template, a policy template, and Circle of Trust (COT).
