# MaiGuard ID > The identity layer of the MaiGuard platform. A business creates one verified identity — legal entity, RC number, directors and UBOs, documents — and reuses it across every MaiGuard product with consent, instead of re-submitting the same KYB to each one. MaiGuard ID (id.maiguard.com) is part of MaiGuard, the trust infrastructure for African financial institutions. It is not a standalone KYB product; it is the platform's identity layer — a secure home for a business's identity that MaiGuard's own products (Sentinel, Verify, Resolve, Assist) read through a consented contract. ## What it is today (v1) - A business identity vault: the KYB a business already gives MaiGuard, held once in one independently-scalable place. - Reused across every MaiGuard product with the holder's consent — no re-collection. - A business identity is modeled as a graph of people and an org: directors, beneficial owners (UBOs) and admins are first-class person records who each link their own MaiGuard ID, or are invited to create one. - Every attribute carries its own verification status (verified vs. asserted). ## How consent works - The requesting product declares exactly what it needs (required scopes) plus anything optional. - The holder sees a consent screen at id.maiguard.com/consent, approves per attribute, and can decline optional items. - Every share is logged two-sided; access can be revoked at any time from Connected apps. ## Roadmap (not yet available) - "Continue with MaiGuard ID": SSO / OIDC sign-in for external third-party apps. - Verify once: attested, liveness-bound claims a receiver can rely on. - Personal identities: the same vault and consent model for individuals (a personal identity wallet). ## Security & compliance - Envelope-encrypted custody; keys held for the holder. - ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified; NDPR licensed. - Data-subject rights (access, erasure, portability, rectification) honoured by design. ## Pages - [Home](https://id.maiguard.com/): overview of the identity layer. - [For business](https://id.maiguard.com/business): the v1 value — one business identity reused across MaiGuard. - [Trust & security](https://id.maiguard.com/trust): custody model, data rights, certifications. - [For developers](https://id.maiguard.com/developers): "Continue with MaiGuard ID" (roadmap / early access). - [For individuals](https://id.maiguard.com/individuals): personal identity wallet (coming, v2). ## Related - MaiGuard platform: https://www.maiguard.com
