Investigations & Identity Resolution
Connect the intelligence behind every identity.
Resolve identities, connect digital footprints, and uncover relationships across multiple data sources to accelerate investigations and build a more complete picture.
Finding the right person is only the first step. Investigation & Identity Resolution brings together multiple Liferaft capabilities to help analysts validate identities, uncover relationships, and build a more complete understanding of the people relevant to their investigations.
The Challenge
Identifying the right person often requires searching across multiple sources and manually connecting names, usernames, contact information, and other identifiers.
-
Moving between search engines, social platforms, public records, and other sources slows investigations and increases the risk of missing important connections.
The risk of doing nothing.
Incomplete identity information can delay investigations, overlook key relationships, and make it harder to assess potential risk.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Liferaft help identify threat actors?
Liferaft helps analysts identify threat actors by bringing together information from multiple data sources. Investigators and analysts can search using names, usernames, email addresses, phone numbers, and other identifiers to build richer profiles and support security investigations.
What information can I search using Liferaft’s identity resolution capabilities?
Analysts can search using a variety of identifiers, including names, usernames, email addresses, phone numbers, and other available information. Liferaft connects related intelligence to help verify identities and provide additional context for analysis.
How does Liferaft support investigations?
Liferaft helps investigators and analysts connect information from multiple sources into a single workflow, making it easier to research and verify threat actor identities, uncover relationships, and enrich the intelligence collected during security investigations.
What is People Search and how does it work within Liferaft?
People Search is a part of Liferaft iD’s identity resolution capabilities and allows analysts to build a clearer picture of a known threat actor’s digital footprint from both publicly available sources and breached data. Analysts start by inputting what they know, such as a name or username from an account of interest. Liferaft iD uses AI-assisted analysis to surface strong matches and prioritizes results with confidence indicators, helping analysts resolve identities more accurately.
Does identity resolution include public records data?
Yes, as a premium add-on. Public Records adds context such as past addresses, financial indicators, and criminal records where legally permitted, which helps a team judge proximity and capability rather than intent alone. It is available on request and subject to the legal limits of each jurisdiction.
How accurate is Liferaft’s identity resolution, and how are findings verified?
Findings carry confidence scoring, and an analyst verifies them before anything is escalated. Corroboration across multiple sources, review of an account’s recent public activity, and public records context let a team confirm or rule out a match, and the reasoning is documented in the case file. AI assists the analysis; the conclusion stays with the analyst.
Can identity resolution findings be added to a case file or Dossier?
Yes. Identity findings, source links, screenshots, and analyst notes are saved into the case file, which becomes the single record supporting escalation, stand-down, or handoff to legal, HR, or law enforcement. Everything keeps its source and timestamp, so the record stands on its own months later.
