World renowned 3D liveness and facial recognition company FaceTec is so confident in its software, that it offers a $100 000 reward for any successful spoof of its biometric authentication solution.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to preventing fraud, only the best technology with the tightest security and highest levels of accuracy is good enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is why, as a service that facilitates fraud prevention for credit providers that require strict risk management protocols, pbVerify uses FaceTec, the global standard for liveness and 3D face matching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FaceTec\u2019s 3D Liveness Detection technology is so watertight, and the company is so confident in its anti-fraud aptitude, that it offers a $100 000 Spoof Bounty Program<\/a> that challenges hackers to find a spoof that fools its system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, since its introduction in 2019 to date, not a single attempt at fooling FaceTec\u2019s software has succeeded \u2013 despite countless digital and physical spoof artifacts (including hi-res photos and videos, life-like masks, and mannequin heads) being used to try do so. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why a spoof bounty program?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The essence of FaceTec\u2019s spoof bounty program is about much more than just a monetary reward. Its goal is primarily to uncover potentially unknown vulnerabilities in the Liveness AI and security layers, so that any issues can be patched and the anti-spoofing capabilities and overall platform security elevated even further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cyber-attack resource website CAPEC defines identity spoofing as \u201cThe action of assuming (i.e., taking on) the identity of some other entity (human or non-human) and then using that identity to accomplish a goal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ill-intentioned tech-savvy individuals could, for instance, craft messages that purport to come from a different source, or they may use stolen authentication credentials to get away with very serious and harmful crimes against citizens and companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since being founded in 2013, FaceTec has dug more deeply into anti-spoofing than anyone else. The company has performed tens-of-millions of spoof attempts, with every conceivable type of media, and learned how to stop them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

UPDATE: FaceTec v9.3<\/em><\/strong> Hot on the heels of a recent upgrade (v9.2.0)<\/a> to FaceTec\u2019s OCR (Optical Character Recognition) feature, FaceTec has released v9.3.0, which includes significant OCR accuracy improvements and compatibility fixes.
