“Prior to using Spotlite from CDD, we had to complete many forms, and meet face-to-face, to sign off images of the individual’s identity documents when applying for security clearance to access clients’ sites. Now, with Spotlite, the process is much simpler, whilst keeping the trust of our customers.”
