The goal of IAM is to provide appropriate, authenticated and authorized access to the VA and selected business partners enterprise resources. Identity proofing is the process of verifying a user's identity using documents or information provided during the user registration process.

Identity and Access Management (IAM) has a requirement to integrate remote/on-line proofing functionality into the enterprise Identity Proofing service by August 15, 2012. The remote/on-line proofing functionality will be an integral part of the IAM Services continuing into future releases. Several consumers of the remote/on-line proofing functionality have been identified across many VA programs.
