Reducing Fraud in ID Enrollment: What Liveness Detection Actually Catches

Share This Post

When someone shows up to get  a SIM card, open a bank account, or get a government ID, the process is simple. They provide their personal information, their biometrics are captured and the application is processed.

What Happens in Self Service Environments?

Digital transformation is spreading across industries and a lot of services can now be accessed remotely via self-service platforms. Imagine a man trying to open a bank account online but during the face capture, he uses a picture of someone else instead. In another case, someone plays a pre-recorded video of a face moving and blinking, hoping the system accepts it as real. Sometimes, people even wear 3D masks or use someone else’s ID.

These tricks are not just clever, they’re dangerous. They allow bad actors to hide behind fake identities, bypass KYC rules and commit crimes. That’s why just capturing a face or fingerprint isn’t enough.

Liveness Detection is able to prevent this.

So, What is Liveness Detection and How Does it Work?

Liveness detection is a security feature used in biometric systems to determine whether the biometric sample, such as a face or fingerprint is being presented by a real, live person rather than a spoof, like a photo, video, or fake fingerprint. It helps prevent fraud by ensuring that only genuine users can pass biometric verification.

It helps the system figure out: Is this a real live person standing here right now? Or is it just a photo, mask, or video?

Our advanced AI algorithm analyzes micro-expressions, movements, and user interactions to differentiate between real users and fraudulent attempts. This state-of-the-art technology is ideal for industries requiring secure and seamless identity verification.

All of this happens in seconds, and it doesn’t slow down your process.
