Scholarly Publishers and ORCID: Partnering to Advance Trust in Research - ORCID

"By requiring authors to connect their authenticated ORCID iD during the submission process, editors can “know their author” through a persistent unique identifier that is maintained by the researcher themselves. This authentication step can help reduce the risk of impersonation or fraudulent submissions. ORCID records, populated with trusted data from sources such as publishers, funders, and academic institutions, provide a rich and verified history of a researcher’s contributions, allowing editorial teams to address the credibility of their claims and scholarly output."
