Trusted by Forward-Thinking Agencies & Utilities
"Knowing who is at the door before opening it changes everything for vulnerable residents."
Safety Through
Certainty.
Uncertainty breeds fear. Fear leads to escalation. VerifiedKnock removes the uncertainty from the moment of arrival.
Eliminate "The Unknown"
Residents no longer have to guess if the person at the door is a legitimate officer or an imposter. The verification happens before any interaction — so residents can make an informed decision.
Protect Your Officers
When a resident feels safe, they are less defensive. VerifiedKnock creates a calmer, safer environment for officers to conduct their duties.
Your door is blind. Until now.
A standard doorbell shows you someone is there. VerifiedKnock proves they belong there — cryptographically, before the door opens.
Simple. Secure. Instant.
No complex training required. If you can use a credit card, you can use VerifiedKnock.
Biometric Unlock
Officer presses their thumb on the ATKey.Card sensor. Match-on-card biometrics unlock credentials — fingerprint data never leaves the card.
Tap the Door
Officer taps their ATKey.Card to the NFC sticker on the door frame. A cryptographic challenge-response proves identity and physical presence — offline, instantly.
Resident Notified
The resident's phone receives a push notification: department name, dispatch reference number, and verified timestamp. No officer PII. No guessing. Open with confidence.
Two ways to receive. One standard of trust.
VerifiedKnock works for every household — whether you prefer a smartphone app or no technology at all.
Passive NFC Sticker
A cryptographically secure NTAG424 DNA sticker placed at your door. Tech-savvy residents set it up once via the VerifiedKnock app — no hardware, no power, no maintenance.
VerifiedAmbient™ Dedicated Reader
A wall-mounted NFC reader that installs beside the door. No smartphone, no app, no Wi-Fi required. The officer taps their FIDO2 card — the room signals green instantly.
Recent Verification Failures
Real-world incidents where identity verification gaps led to fraud, theft, or harm.
Logistics Identity Fraud Attempts Spiked 200% in Two Years
A new industry report reveals identity fraud attempts at logistics receiving docks have surged over 200% in two years, with AI-generated fake credentials now indistinguishable from real ones. Cargo theft losses hit an estimated $725 million in 2025. Fraudulent pickups — where criminals impersonate authorized drivers to walk off with pallets of goods — are now the fastest-growing theft vector.
EVV: The New Frontier in Home Health Fraud Enforcement
Federal and state regulators are ramping up enforcement of Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) requirements under the 21st Century Cures Act. Agencies that cannot cryptographically prove caregiver presence and identity at the point of care face Medicaid claim denials and fraud referrals. Traditional GPS and phone-based EVV systems are increasingly being challenged as insufficient — the standard is moving toward hardware-backed biometric verification.
Scammers Posing as Utility Workers for Entry
Officials warn of criminals posing as water/power employees using high-pressure tactics to gain entry to homes. Residents urged to call utility companies to verify.
Fake Delivery Alerts Used to Prime Victims for Door Scams
Scammers send fake Amazon, FedEx, and UPS delivery notifications via text or email, then send an accomplice to knock on the door while the victim's guard is down. The digital notification is the setup — the physical knock is the attack. VerifiedKnock eliminates this by requiring cryptographic proof of identity at the door, regardless of any prior notification.
Fake Water Inspectors Target Elderly
Thieves claiming to test water quality are targeting senior citizens to gain access to valuables. Police remind citizens that real workers have scheduled appointments.
Don't become a statistic. Verify identity before you interact.
"Does it transmit my fingerprint somewhere?"
No. The fingerprint never leaves the card. Here's exactly what happens when an officer taps.
Finger Touches Card
The officer's fingerprint is read by the sensor on the card itself. The biometric template is stored in the card's tamper-proof secure chip — never on a server.
Card Verifies Internally
The card compares the fingerprint to its stored template entirely inside the chip. No fingerprint data is ever transmitted — not to the phone, not to our servers, not anywhere.
Only a Signature Is Sent
A cryptographic signature — mathematically impossible to reverse into a fingerprint — is transmitted. Our system verifies the signature. That's it.
