IDEX Biometrics CEO Catharina Eklof is featured in Biometric Update discussing the future or #payments and #biometrics. In terms of biometric modalities, faces may be having their time in the sun – but you can never count out the classics, which have lasted for good reason. “While contactless payments prioritize speed and convenience, this often involves a trade-off with security,” says Eklof. “When you think about it, using your fingerprint to authenticate is a voluntary act – you press your fingerprint on the reader – whereas your face can be captured without your consent via surveillance cameras, for instance. Also, while your fingerprint is not available on the internet, your face can in many cases be easily found on social media and other digital platforms. This increases the risk surrounding face ID when it comes to deepfakes and synthetic ID fraud.” Read the full article here ▶️ https://bit.ly/3YoZjoo
