Linkedin Account Security Best 
Practices 2027 
 
At its simplest, a verified LinkedIn account is a profile that has undergone a formal process to 
confirm specific, real-world information. Unlike some social platforms where verification is a 
"vanity metric" or a paid subscription feature, LinkedIn’s system is built on confirming functional 
truths about a professional’s identity.

A verified account is defined by three core pillars: 
1. Identity Verification: Confirming that you are a living, breathing human being who 
matches a government-issued ID. 
2. Workplace Verification: Confirming that you are currently employed by the organization 
listed on your profile. 
3. Educational Verification: Confirming that you are an alumnus or student of a specific 
academic institution. 
When a user sees a grey or blue verification shield on a profile, it serves as a digital "seal of 
approval." It tells the viewer that LinkedIn (often through a secure third-party partner) has 
checked the documents and confirmed that the person behind the screen is exactly who they 
claim to be. 
The Three Types of LinkedIn Verification 
To understand how a verified account is defined, you must understand the different "flavors" of 
verification available today. 
1. Identity Verification 
This is the most foundational type. LinkedIn partners with global identity services—such as 
CLEAR in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, DigiLocker in India, or Persona in other 
regions—to verify government IDs. 
● How it’s defined: You provide a photo of your passport or driver’s license and a live 
"selfie" to match the image. 
● The Result: A verification mark that proves your profile isn’t a bot or an impersonator. 
2. Workplace Verification 
This confirms your professional status. It is particularly useful for sales professionals and 
recruiters who need to prove they represent a legitimate company. 
● How it’s defined: Typically verified through a work email address (ending in 
@yourcompany.com) or through Microsoft Entra Verified ID. 
● The Result: A badge that confirms you are an active part of your stated company. 
3. Educational Institution Verification 
This is designed to authenticate your academic background. 
● How it’s defined: Verified through a school-issued email address or a LinkedIn Learning 
license provided by your university. 
● The Result: Increased trust in your credentials and educational history. 
How a Verified LinkedIn Account is Used in 2025 
Verification isn’t just for show; it fundamentally changes how you interact with the platform. Here

In a world full of "spammy" connection requests, a verified badge acts as a digital handshake. 
When a recruiter or a potential client receives a message from a verified account, their guard 
naturally drops. They know they aren't being targeted by a fake profile or a phishing scam. 
Improving Search Visibility 
LinkedIn’s algorithm increasingly prioritizes authenticity. Data suggests that verified profiles can 
receive up to 60% more views than unverified ones. By being verified, your profile is more likely 
to appear at the top of search results when recruiters look for specific skills or job titles. 
Safe Networking in the AI Era 
With the rise of AI-generated headshots and deepfake profiles, the "Verified" status is the only 
way to prove you are a real person. Professionals use it to filter through their own connection 
requests, often choosing only to engage with others who have also verified their identity. 
Cross-Platform Credibility 
A new feature for 2025 allows users to "carry" their LinkedIn verification to other partner 
platforms. For example, if you are a freelancer on a creative site or a reviewer on a B2B 
platform, your LinkedIn verification can serve as proof of identity there, saving you from having 
to verify your ID on every single website you use. 
Step-by-Step: How to Get Verified 
The process is surprisingly straightforward and, most importantly, free. 
1. Update Your Profile: Ensure your name on LinkedIn matches the name on your 
government-issued ID exactly. Remove any nicknames or emojis from the name field. 
2. Access the Mobile App: Verification is almost always handled through the LinkedIn 
mobile app (iOS or Android) because it requires your phone’s camera and NFC reader. 
3. Find the "Verify" Option: Go to your profile, tap "More," then "About this profile." If you 
are eligible, you will see a "Verify now" button. 
4. The Identity Scan: Follow the prompts to scan your ID and take a selfie. If you are 
doing workplace verification, simply enter your work email and wait for the 6-digit code. 
5. Wait for Approval: Identity verification usually takes a few minutes, while workplace 
verification can take up to 24–48 hours to display. 
Common Questions & Answers 
Q: Is there a fee for LinkedIn verification? 
No. Unlike other platforms that charge a monthly subscription for a "blue check," LinkedIn 
verification is currently free for all members who meet the eligibility criteria. 
Q: Does verification share my private ID data with the public? 
No. When you verify your identity through a partner like CLEAR or Persona, LinkedIn receives a 
"confirmation signal" that you are real. Your passport number, address, and ID photo are not 
displayed on your profile or stored in a way that other users can see. 
Q: Why don't I see the option to verify my workplace? 
Workplace verification depends on whether your company has enabled the feature and if your 
email domain is recognized by LinkedIn. If you don't see the option, your company may not yet 
be part of the program. 
Q: Can I lose my verified status? 
Yes. If you change your name on your profile or delete the email address associated with your 
workplace verification, the badge may be removed, and you will need to re-verify. 
Conclusion: The Future of Professional Identity 
As we look toward the future of work, the definition of a "professional profile" is shifting. It is no 
longer enough to just have a list of skills; you must be able to prove you are the person behind 
those skills.
