About IdentiQ

British engineers building the trust layer of the enterprise

IdentiQ Systems Ltd was founded in London in 2016 on a simple conviction: identity is the foundation of digital trust, and it deserves the same rigour as the vaults it protects.

Our story

From a Vauxhall workshop to the national trust layer

We started in a converted workshop on Vauxhall Walk, three engineers and one whiteboard covered in authentication flows. A decade later, IdentiQ verifies 2.4 billion authentications a year for banks, hospitals, universities and logistics networks — and we still work from the same street.

Our customers operate in environments where an identity failure is not an inconvenience — it is a regulator's report, a patient's record, a customer's savings. That responsibility shapes everything: how we engineer, how we operate, and how we answer the phone at 3 a.m.

Values

What we hold to

Five principles that decide every argument in the building.

Security before speed

We would rather delay a release than weaken a control. Every change passes threat modelling before it ships.

British sovereignty

UK-built, UK-hosted, UK-operated. Our customers’ identity data never leaves United Kingdom jurisdiction.

Radical transparency

Published uptime, published incident timelines, published policy behaviour. Trust is earned with evidence.

Engineering rigour

Formal verification of our policy engine, exhaustive property-based testing, and open standards over proprietary shortcuts.

Service as a discipline

Every enterprise customer gets a named solutions engineer. Support is delivered by engineers, not scripts.
