Anything with a look #14: Identity fraud? Not on our watch

Advanced deepfakes have emerged as a major security risk, with fraudsters exploiting weaknesses in systems relying on facial verification through spoofing techniques, such as using high-quality photos, videos, or 3D masks to impersonate legitimate users. It has become a significant threat, enabling the creation of hyper-realistic synthetic videos that can deceive even sophisticated facial recognition systems and posing a substantial threat to businesses, leading to significant financial losses, legal repercussions, and damaged customer relationships.?

Our unwavering commitment to security is rooted in our belief that seamless user interactions and robust fraud protection should go hand-in-hand. We're dedicated to safeguarding businesses and their customers from the ever-evolving threats of fraudsters.??

Our recent update on ISO 30701-3 compliance (Level 1 and 2) by iBeta Quality Assurance is a testament to our technological prowess. Our liveness detection algorithm achieved 0% FAR under more than thousands of challenging spoofing attempts, showing our commitment to developing robust, bias-free anti-spoofing technology.? ?

But we're not stopping there. Our advanced video injection detection capabilities can identify even the most sophisticated deepfakes. The technology can identify anomalies and inconsistencies in video streams, distinguishing between genuine video and synthetic content generated by deep fake algorithms, eliminating the risk of unauthorized access through manipulated video content.?We’re continuously investigating new lines of attacks and updating our fraud detection solution to be a step ahead of synthetic identity fraud mechanisms.?

Exciting times as we’re setting new security standards for face authentication and onboarding more partners to build together secure and private digital interactions.?

Best,?
