Civil Solutions



Safeguarding civilian programs from identity-related fraud.


L-1 solutions and services help safeguard a wide range of civil programs from identity-related fraud that can compromise the integrity of licenses and permits, increase the cost of government-run programs and place citizens at risk from theft and crime. Solutions and services are trusted tools for:

  • Performing Background Checks for Government Licenses and Permits

    L-1 enrollment service centers offer a professional environment for processing background checks and fingerprints required for licensed employment and government-issued permits. Today L-1 has contracts with 80 percent of U.S. States that allow outsourcing, half of which are exclusive arrangements with L-1. L-1 is also an aviation channeling service provider.
  • Enrolling and Verifying Participants in Government Entitlement Programs

    L-1 solutions and services offer fast and secure methods of capturing biometric and other data required in the enrollment and administration of civilian entitlement programs. As a result, programs are protected from identity-related fraud that can increase cost and prevent aid from getting to those that need it most. This includes a wide range of health, welfare and social service programs globally.
  • Issuing Secure Government-Issued Identity Documents

    L-1 solutions help improve the security of identity documents such as driver’s licenses, Passports, National and Universal/Unique IDs, Voter Registration cards and other forms of government issued IDs. Solutions incorporate biometrics to produce the most secure and tamper-proof documents available. Document authentication tools validate the IDs and ensure that the owner is the original, intended recipient.
