# Identity Verification Data Sources
ZignSec provides several **identity verification (IDV) services** that connect to authoritative registries and data providers. These services make it easier for businesses to confirm customer identities, reduce fraud, and stay compliant with KYC/AML requirements.
This section of the documentation covers three available services:
- [[Identity Verification (defined data sources)|Defined Data Source]]
A catalog of supported registries and providers that can be queried to validate identity details. Each entry includes coverage, availability, and usage examples.
- [[Sweden Identity Lookup|Identity Lookup (Sweden)]]
A service tailored for the Swedish market that verifies personal identity numbers (personnummer), names, and addresses in real time against national registries.
- [[Register Checks|Register Checks (Legacy)]]
Older registry lookup services, still supported for existing integrations but largely replaced by the Defined Data Sources framework.
## When to Use These Services
- To comply with **Know Your Customer (KYC)** and **Anti-Money Laundering (AML)** obligations.
- To validate customer information against trusted registry data.
- To adapt verification processes to **local regulations and data availability**.
