ID R&D Integrations

The use of facial recognition for authentication is becoming increasingly prevalent — especially on mobile devices. But between easy access to images on social media and advances in digital and print image resolution, biometric systems have security gaps that fraudsters can exploit to successfully spoof a facial recognition system. These spoofs, called presentation attacks, include printed photos, cutout masks, digital and video replay attacks, and 3D masks. The benefit of liveness is improved security and fraud detection. The benefit of ID R&D’s passive face liveness is that it is both secure and easy to use. Whereas other products add extra steps and time to the liveness check, IDLive Face is imperceptible to customers who don’t even know it’s happening. And, the software gives no clues to fraudsters on how to beat it. Because passive liveness is less confusing for users, abandonment rates are greatly reduced and less human intervention is needed.

Voice biometrics is the science of using a person’s voice as a uniquely identifying characteristic for the purpose of authentication and/or personalizing the user experience. The technology is referred to in a variety of ways including voice verification, speaker verification, speaker identification and speaker recognition. There are two ways we put voice biometrics into practice. The first is Text Independent Voice Verification. This approach does not depend on the person speaking a particular passphrase. The other is Text Dependent Voice Verification. in which the user enrolls using a specific phrase but unlike a password, this phrase is not secret. IDVoice enables both options depending on your use case and in some scenarios they may be used together.
