What Are the Benefits of AI-Enhanced Biometrics? - Mobile ID World

Two of the biggest names in biometrics have issued a joint White Paper detailing the benefits of AI-driven face authentication. The paper, entitled "Enhancing Trust with AI-Driven Biometrics", is jointly presented by FaceTec and Jumio, ID verification and authentication specialists leading the current digital onboarding trend with remote enrollment, face authentication and biometric liveness technology. Artificial Intelligence plays an enormously important role in their solutions, and accordingly, it's a major focus of the paper. Available as an e-book, the paper builds on the idea of the "trust anchor" explored in the previously published White Paper "Trusted Identity From Start to Finish": essentially, the idea is that strong authentication starts with the foundation of an anchor document that provides reliable identity assurance. Establishing a link between the end user's face and this anchor – a passport or a driver's license, for example – allows for the creation of a "trust chain" in which authentication can reliably be performed at any point going forward.
