iBeta Quality Assurance

What iBeta Quality Assurance does

iBeta Quality Assurance is a privately held, independent software testing and certification laboratory founded in 1999 and headquartered in Aurora, Colorado, with a secure testing lab in Denver. The company provides on-demand third-party QA services across nine core offerings: Web, Mobile, Accessibility, Biometrics, API, Automated, Load/Performance, IoT Testing, and EPCS Certification. Its competitive position is anchored by an unusually dense regulatory accreditation stack — NIST NVLAP (Lab Code 200962-0), FIDO Alliance (first accredited biometric lab), DEA-approved EPCS certification (since 2013), Mastercard biometrics lab, and Android Security Partner — making it a de facto gatekeeper for biometrics and EPCS compliance testing.

The company's technology backbone is a world-class secure lab featuring hundreds of physical mobile devices (explicitly no emulators), ultra-fast low-latency fiber optic connectivity, multiple isolated test networks, an in-house data center for performance monitoring, and physical security including biometric locks and 24/7 CCTV. It maintains proprietary testing methodologies for ISO/IEC 30107-3 PAD Levels 1-3, ISO 19795-2/10 biometric performance and bias testing, and as of June 2026, Injection Attack Detection per the emerging CENS/TS 18099:2025 European standard. Notable test results include zero-error Level 3 PAD conformance validations for Incode Technologies and Shufti, and demonstrated system capacity for clients including 30,000 concurrent users in daycare check-in systems and 500K concurrent users for a social media platform.

iBeta operates a project-based professional services revenue model with flexible pricing (hourly, per-project, subscription), no contractual minimums, and exclusive direct enterprise sales — no resellers, distributors, or marketplaces. Its customer base spans Fortune 500 enterprise technology (Vimeo, Ricoh, Pitney Bowes, Hasbro), biometrics and identity vendors (Incode, Jumio, Shufti, Yoti, Veridas, Regula, Iris ID, Zoloz, Alibaba Cloud, CIMB Bank Vietnam, Unikrew Solutions), and regulated industries requiring EPCS, HIPAA, or government compliance. Geographic reach is global despite the US headquarters, with active engagement in European and Asian biometrics certification markets and physical presence at industry events such as Identity Week Amsterdam.
