In today’s interconnected world, maintaining online security and protecting our digital identities are of utmost importance. That’s why we are thrilled to share the recent security measures introduced by LinkedIn to enhance secure identity verification for all its members. At FEITIAN, we understand the significance of robust authentication protocols and are dedicated to providing cutting-edge solutions to bolster online security. In this blog post, we will explore the new LinkedIn security protocol and discuss how FEITIAN can help you further strengthen your LinkedIn account’s protection.
Enhanced LinkedIn’s Security Measures:
LinkedIn has announced three new identity verification measures to augment its existing security methods. These measures are aimed at ensuring profile authenticity and fostering a trusted professional network. Let’s take a closer look at these measures:
CLEAR Identity Verification:
LinkedIn now allows users to verify their identity using the secure identity platform, CLEAR. By providing a U.S. government-issued ID and phone number for verification, you can display your verified identity on your LinkedIn profile. This feature adds an extra layer of credibility and trust to your professional persona.
Workplace Verification:
LinkedIn enables users to verify their workplace by using their company email. This measure is currently available to millions of members worldwide and thousands of companies. By showcasing your verified workplace affiliation, you can establish your professional credentials and build trust within the LinkedIn community.
Microsoft’s Entra Verified ID:
LinkedIn has partnered with Microsoft to incorporate the Entra Verified ID platform. This collaboration allows for digital workplace IDs to be issued, ensuring authenticity and trust in users’ education, skills, and workplace affiliation. The Verified ID platform utilizes decentralized identity standards and offers a secure and seamless way to validate users’ credentials.
FEITIAN’s Advanced Authentication Solutions to Enhance Security:
FEITIAN is a leading provider of advanced authentication solutions designed to fortify online security across various platforms, including LinkedIn.

Here’s how FEITIAN can further enhance your LinkedIn security:
Hardware Security Keys:
FEITIAN offers FIDO2-certified hardware security keys that provide strong two-factor authentication (2FA) for your LinkedIn account. By leveraging cryptographic key pairs stored securely within the hardware key, these devices protect against phishing attacks and account takeovers.
Biometric Authentication:
FEITIAN’s biometric authentication solutions offer an additional layer of security for your LinkedIn account. Biometrics provide a convenient and secure way to authenticate your identity, making it difficult for unauthorized individuals to gain access to your profile.

FEITIAN’s MFA solutions, including FIDO security keys and smart cards, provide enhanced authentication capabilities for your LinkedIn account. By combining multiple factors such as something you know (password) and something you have (security key or smart card), MFA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access.
LinkedIn’s new security measures demonstrate the platform’s commitment to enhancing user security, trust, and authenticity. By leveraging FEITIAN’s advanced authentication solutions, such as hardware security keys, biometric authentication, and MFA solutions, you can further strengthen your LinkedIn account’s protection and safeguard your professional identity.
