Document Validation: documentary control at the heart of anti-fraud
Document Validation goes well beyond simple document processing. This control consists in automatically analyzing the documents to verify their compliance, eligibility and consistency in sensitive processes. At Finovox, Document Validation is part of the natural continuity of historical expertise in document fraud. The objective is not only to read a document, but to decide if it is reliable, compliant, and usable in a specific business context. We explain how it works in this article!
What is Document Validation?
Document Validation is a document compliance analysis. It relies on data extracted from documents to apply business and operational rules. In particular, this brick makes it possible to:
- verify business compliance of a document,
- control the eligibility criteria of a file,
- compare the document data to external or internal sources (references, customer files, business databases),
- Automate decision rules hitherto manual.
The Validation Document occurs after the structuring of the document. It is thus the logical continuation of the Document Processing, which prepares and structures documents in advance to allow for automated controls and decisions.
How does the Validation Document work at Finovox?
Once the documents are made usable, Document Validation applies a series of intelligent controls, adapted to the requirements of each company:
Business compliance control allows you to check that the document complies with the rules expected for a given use.
This includes controlling the presence of mandatory fields, the overall consistency of information (dates, amounts, identities, references), the respect for expected formats And the compliance of the document with internal or regulatory standards. This first level of control makes it possible to immediately rule out incomplete, inconsistent or non-compliant documents.
Checking the eligibility criteria aims to determine if the document meets the requirements for accessing a specific product, service, or journey.
These criteria can be financiers, administrative, contract workers or regulatory.
For example, to rent an apartment, a candidate must provide a proof of income And a employment contract. The Validation Document automatically checks the eligibility criteria, such as:
- for proof of income: the date of the document (less than 3 months) and the salary level (for example greater than €6,500 net),
- for the employment contract: the type of contract and the end of the trial period.
These automated checks make it possible to decide quickly and uniformly on the eligibility of the file.
Comparison with data external to the document reinforces the reliability of controls. The extracted information is compared with reference sources. It may be internal company data (customer file, history, business references), but also to external databases.
This step makes it possible to detect inconsistencies, attempts at falsification or discrepancies between the document provided and the reality known to the customer or contract.
Automating business rules Finally, it is a major driver of performance.
By translating internal policies and regulatory requirements into automated rules, Document Validation allows decisions to be made in real time, without systematic manual intervention.
All of these controls are carried out in real time, directly in user paths or internal processing chains.
A concrete use case: the example of HP
Chez HP, Document Validation is used to reinforce high-stakes documentary paths. The speed of treatment must go hand in hand with a high level of control!
The implementation of Finovox allowed HP to reduce the verification of the eligibility of the document, previously processed in 54 days only 10 seconds.
This example illustrates how Document Validation integrates effectively into complex, large-scale environments.
Document Validation and Document Processing: two complementary building blocks
Document Processing prepares documents: reception, structuring, data extraction. The Validation Document, for its part, uses this data to make decisions. This complementarity then allows:
- OfAccelerate customer journeys
- of making decisions more reliable
- of reduce fraud and errors,
- Ofimprove the user experience without compromising on safety.
Security, Compliance, and Data Protection
The Validation Document is designed to operate in demanding regulatory contexts. The checks are carried out within a strict data protection framework, with:
- one controlled access management
- one full traceability Decisions
- one RGPD compliance integrated in coherence with ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 standards.
