Abstract

In some aspects, a verification system can receive a verification query from a verifier computing system for requesting verification of characteristics of an entity involved in an online interaction. The verification query can include a unique identifier ('UID') of the entity. The verification computing system can query a verification repository in the verification computing system based on the UID. Additionally, the verification computing system can query an external-source cache using the UID. In response to determine a match for the UID in the external-source cache, the verification computing system can request external sensitive data records for the entity from an external source corresponding to the external-source cache. Generating consolidated sensitive data records can involve consolidating the external sensitive data records and internal sensitive data records obtained through querying the verification repository. A verification result, generated using the consolidated sensitive data records, can be transmitted to the verifier computing system.
