New capability brings cryptographically verifiable, privacy-preserving digital credentials to America's "one account for government"
MCLEAN, Va., Sept. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Building on the momentum of the 2024 Login.gov Next Generation Identity Proofing Blanket Purchase Agreement (NG BPA), Xcelerate Solutions, a leading national security company, and teammate Socure, the leading AI-native trust infrastructure for global identity and risk intelligence, today announced expanded support for Login.gov by integrating mobile driver's licenses (mDLs) as an accepted form of identification for remote unattended identity verification.
Login.gov is the public's one account for government, offering a safe and easy way to access many important services. Acceptance of mobile driver's licenses marks an important step toward more secure, mobile-centric identity verification.
Operating within Socure's secure FedRAMP Moderate environment, the mDL feature uses the same trusted real-time identity checks, fraud detection, and behavioral analytics that provide core capabilities to Login.gov's identity verification service. These tools are fully operational, adaptable, and ready to respond as cyber threats evolve.
With mDL support, Login.gov can now verify identity information directly from state-issued digital credentials based on ISO/IEC 18013 standards. This means added security with tamper-evident verification, giving users greater peace of mind. It also reduces the need to handle physical IDs, which can be inconvenient, and improves accessibility for those who prefer mobile-first interactions.
"Mobile driver's licenses represent a shift in how Americans prove their identity online," said Jim Dufford, Vice President at Xcelerate Solutions. "They offer better security, privacy, and user experience. Supporting mDLs on Login.gov aligns with our mission of helping the government deliver secure, seamless services. Our partnership with Socure blends expertise with technology to make accessing government services safer and easier for millions."
"Government agencies are facing a new generation of identity fraud, where organized networks, synthetic identities, and AI-enabled attacks can exploit legacy systems faster than traditional defenses can respond," said Jordan Burris, Head of Public Sector at Socure. "By supporting mobile driver's licenses as cryptographically verifiable credentials, Login.gov is helping modernize identity verification in a way that strengthens fraud prevention, reduces friction for legitimate users, and expands secure access to critical government services."
Together, Xcelerate and Socure are delivering a secure, user-friendly identity-proofing process that incorporates biometrics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and now digital identity credentials. This integrated approach ensures Americans can access government services with confidence, ease, and the highest levels of protection against fraud.
