Urgent Need for JPKI Adoption: eKYC's New Standard for the AI Era

Understanding the Urgency for JPKI Adoption

In the age of artificial intelligence, the landscape of online identity verification, known as eKYC, is rapidly evolving. As fraud techniques become increasingly sophisticated due to the rise of generative AI, the traditional selfie-based verification methods, commonly referred to as 'H method', are proving inadequate. In response to these challenges, Growship Partners Inc. has announced a free online seminar scheduled for December 3, 2025, aimed at addressing the pressing need for businesses to adopt the new JPKI (Public Personal Authentication) methods based on My Number Cards.

Background: Rising Fraud Risks and Regulatory Pressures

The identity verification market across various sectors such as finance, insurance, telecommunications, and second-hand commerce is undergoing a significant transformation. Recent advancements in AI technology have led to an increase in impersonation crimes using still images and videos, thereby escalating security risks that the selfie method cannot adequately address. There is a growing demand for more reliable methods of identity verification, alongside expectations to comply with stricter regulations in the future.

Moreover, the traditional selfie method presents challenges such as user drop-off due to resubmissions caused by photo errors and the manual workload involved in verification processes, leading to significant business losses. Therefore, companies must simultaneously tackle the dual challenges of strengthening fraud defenses and enhancing user experiences.

Transitioning to JPKI as a Solution

JPKI utilizes My Number Cards alongside electronic certificates, providing a publically backed, high level of identity verification. This method simplifies the user experience to just placing the My Number Card near a smartphone and entering a PIN, which effectively addresses many existing challenges.

Seminar Overview

The upcoming seminar will focus on the aforementioned market landscape and the associated challenges faced by businesses, particularly in sectors like telecommunications and insurance where verification is crucial. Participants will learn why it is essential to transition to JPKI now, the benefits of implementation, and the specific steps needed in practical applications.

Key Agenda Points:

- The reasons for immediate JPKI adoption
- Differences between JPKI and the selfie method
- Implementation benefits from a business perspective
- Real-world use cases
- Steps towards implementation

The seminar will also include a Q&A session allowing attendees to directly address their queries. All materials will be distributed post-event for internal sharing.

We aim to deliver relevant information as businesses navigate new regulatory landscapes. We encourage everyone to participate actively!
