ID R&D ranks first for voice biometrics and liveness detection in SASV 2022 Challenge
Read MoreCombining unmatched identity industry solutions further simplifies and protects the users’ entire transaction lifecycle. Click here to see why we are excited about the future possibilities now that we are a Mitek company.
ID R&D combines extensive R&D capabilities with advances in AI to deliver superior biometrics and liveness detection software. Our products work across mobile, web, and telephone channels, as well as conversational interfaces, IoT devices, and embedded hardware to improve security and significantly reduce friction in the user experience.
Prevent spoofing attacks with the world’s first single image, passive facial liveness detection product and the only one that is iBeta Level 1 and 2 ISO 30107-3 Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) compliant. IDLive Face relies on the same selfie image used for face matching, improving security while adding zero friction to authentication and digital onboarding processes. The product is used to process millions of monthly transactions for customers worldwide.
IDLive Doc helps ensure that the ID document presented during mobile onboarding is live, present, and in the possession of its owner at the time of capture, and prevents bad actors from presenting an image of an ID document displayed on a screen. Without effective countermeasures to document-based spoofing, fraudsters pose the risk of conducting scalable attacks using easily-obtained images of ID documents.
ID R&D delivers superior speaker verification accuracy in a variety of environments. ID R&D’s latest embedded algorithms achieve 0.01% False Accept Rate with a False Reject Rate less than 5%. In other words, it’s as secure as a PIN! Built on the latest AI advancements and algorithms, IDVoice integrates with contact centers, mobile and web apps, standalone devices, messaging platforms, chatbots, and chips. ID R&D also provides the world’s highest-rated voice liveness product for anti-spoofing.
It’s harder than ever for businesses to protect themselves and their customers against fraud and data breaches.
Traditional authentication methods like passwords and knowledge-based authentication (KBA), are not only frustrating; they are vulnerable to hacking.
Forgotten credentials, locked accounts, and time-consuming reset processes annoy users who, on average, have more than 20 passwords to keep track of. This often leads to bad password hygiene. A PYMNTS study found that approximately 59 percent of consumers use the same password across multiple accounts, allowing cybercriminals to do even more harm once a password is exposed.
According to the FIDO Alliance, passwords are the root cause of 80% of data breaches. As more and more stories of cyber attacks and sophisticated social engineering attacks surface, businesses seek stronger authentication processes and technologies.
Unfortunately, “strong security” often results in complexity in the form of frequent password changes, extra authentication steps and security challenge questions. And worse, some of these approaches continue to put users and companies at risk. For instance, the FBI recently sent a security advisory warning of attacks that bypass multi-factor authentication (MFA) solutions.
Biometrics offer the ability to strengthen security and improve the user experience.
IT research firm Gartner predicts that by 2022, 60% of large businesses and almost all medium-sized companies will have cut their dependence on passwords by half. Many are turning to biometric authentication.
Backed by deep expertise and an extreme focus on R&D, ID R&D develops best-in-class voice biometric authentication and passive voice and facial liveness detection software. These technologies facilitate stronger security, simplified personalization, improved fraud prevention, and a better user experience.
Our flexible SDKs enable businesses to quickly take advantage of award-winning technology and unique functionality for identity verification, authentication and liveness detection across online, mobile, traditional voice, physical access, and IoT devices.
ID R&D is focused on delivering innovative capabilities in the following areas:
Voice Biometrics: Compares the characteristics of a person’s voice with a stored voice template or “voiceprint” to determine a match.
Multi-modal Biometrics: Combines voice and face biometrics, as well as voice and facial liveness detection for a layered authentication solution that is ideal for mobile application login.
Passive Voice and Facial Liveness Detection: Whereas biometric authentication verifies a user is a match with the authorized user, liveness detection identifies presentation attacks including the use of photos, masks, video, recorded voice, computer-generated voice and more to impersonate an authorized user.
ID R&D core Biometric Authentication Software SDKs include:
Enterprises, integrators, and solution providers worldwide build on ID R&D for solutions including digital onboarding, application login, access control, device unlock, IoT personalization and security, and more. ID R&D’s SDKs and Docker images will put you on the fast path to deploying industry-leading, enterprise-grade biometric authentication and liveness capabilities. ID R&D is ISO 27001 compliant with controls in place for code quality and risk mitigation.
