# iVALT Developer Portal

iVALT provides **biometric authentication**, **device trust**, and **contextual security** in a unified platform designed for modern, mobile-first identity experiences.

This Developer Portal provides comprehensive documentation, API references, and integration guides to help you build secure authentication workflows into your applications.

## Core Capabilities

Real-Time Authentication
Biometric verification, device trust validation, and contextual risk assessment integrated into a single real-time authentication workflow.

Mobile Identity Platform
Native mobile SDK and app support for instant push notifications and secure biometric confirmation.

Administrative Controls
Programmatic management of users, roles, policies, geo-fences, IP allowlists, and authentication rules through comprehensive APIs.

## How It Works

iVALT simplifies authentication into four core steps:

1. User Enrollment
Users register their device through the mobile application, establishing device trust.

2. Authentication Request
Your application initiates an authentication request via REST API.

3. Push Notification & Approval
Users receive an instant push notification, confirm with biometric + contextual checks (location, ip, time, ...) authentication.

4. Verified Response
iVALT returns authenticated results with verification status, risk assessment, and contextual metadata to your application.

## Key Advantages

### Passwordless Authentication

Eliminate passwords, OTPs, and shared secrets. Authentication relies on trusted devices and biometric verification.

### Multi-Factor Security

Automatic evaluation of multiple factors: device trust, location, IP address, time windows, and custom security rules.

### Contextual Risk Assessment

Adaptive security policies including geo-fencing, IP allowlists, time-based restrictions, and device reputation scoring.

### Enterprise Compliance

SOC 2 Type II certified, GDPR compliant, end-to-end encryption, and zero-knowledge architecture for maximum security.
