This realignment is intended to increase operational efficiency and help Ipsidy take advantage of the opportunities which are currently presented.

"This realignment will allow us to better leverage our strengths and approach the market faster," said Philip Beck, Chairman and CEO Ipsidy Inc. "We are focusing our resources on the identity solutions we believe the marketplace is demanding, which we believe will drive growth in our business."

Phillip Kumnick added, "Since my appointment to the Ipsidy Board, I have been working closely with the Ipsidy leadership team and believe that the Company's IDaaS platform has tremendous potential for delivering innovative identity solutions which are so desperately needed in today's digital world. The changes announced today I believe will help Ipsidy realize that potential and I very much look forward to working with Philip and the Ipsidy leadership team to help them execute their plan."
