Portfolio overview

Idemia Identity & Security France has been granted 155 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing Idemia Identity & Security France at rank #2,514 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 44 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06V (IMAGE OR VIDEO RECOGNITION OR UNDERSTANDING). As a Foreign Corporation, Idemia Identity & Security France is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Idemia sits between BNSF Railway Company (155 patents, rank #2,510) and Safran Seats USA Llc (155 patents, rank #2,518) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 53.4/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 137 grants, compared with 18 in the 2015–2019 window, a +661% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Idemia Identity & Security France's 13.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 44 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Idemia Identity & Security France against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
