A digital information verification (DIV) system ( 10 ) wherein a process controller ( 12 ) directs operation of a database manager ( 14 ) and a search engine ( 16 ) that access a personal base ( 20 ) and an entity base ( 22 ) containing information provided by individual-members ( 30 ) and entity-members ( 32 ), collectively users ( 34 ) of the DIV system ( 10 ). The users ( 34 ) access the DIV system ( 10 ) via user access devices ( 28 ), a communication unit ( 26 ), and an authentication processor ( 24 ) that determines the nature of each user ( 34 ) based on an ID number ( 44, 54 ) and password. The information provided by the users ( 34 ) is stored in personal records ( 40 ) and entity records ( 50 ), respectively stored in the personal base ( 20 ) and entity base ( 22 ), and can become verified information based upon comparison.
