FacePhi, a provider of facial recognition and mobile biometrics for banking entities, has partnered with ID R&D.
The company has picked ID R&D’s voice biometrics technology, IDVoice, to be integrated into its new mobile security solution, inPhinite.
Launched earlier this year, inPhinite is a tool that combines facial, optical, fingerprint, signature, and voice recognition capabilities. Specifically, ID R&D’s IDVoice will be integrated into PhiVox, which claims to deliver voice recognition within 0.2 seconds and can be used for banking call center management and for the application of voice-related services.
“The combination of unparalleled security and zero-effort user experience is the focus of our biometrics research,” said Alexey Khitrov, CEO of ID R&D. “We are certainly happy with the growing number of financial services companies choosing ID R&D biometrics for continuous or one-time authentication.
“Our award-winning voice biometrics technology complements the high standards FacePhi adheres to. And we’re happy to have been selected to contribute to the inPhinite solution and expand our reach further into the FinTech market.”
New York-based ID R&D is a provider of multi-modal biometric security solutions. In addition to IDVoiceTM, ID R&D also offers approaches to voice anti-spoofing and face anti-spoofing, and behavioural biometrics for mobile and web. Founded in 2016, the company’s biometric technology suite combines into a single application demonstrating zero-effort authentication for mobile apps, chatbots, and messaging platforms.
Its solutions are used by major financial institutions on three continents according to its website.
“By integrating ID R&D’s voice biometrics technology into inPhinite, FacePhi can offer the industry’s most robust voice authentication to millions of users,” said Javier Mira, FacePhi CEO. “The unrivalled speed and accuracy of ID R&D’s technology made it a simple choice for us and we look forward to offering our customers a truly unique and zero-risk security solution.”
Based in Alicante, Spain, FacePhi is currently working with 25 different financial entities worldwide, providing service to more than 6 million users and performing 500 million authentications.
Created in 2012, the company specialises in facial recognition and mobile biometrics, focusing its operations on the financial sector. Likewise, FacePhi has operated in the MAB (Alternative Stock Market, by its acronym in Spanish) since 2014 and commercialises its technological products focused in security for financial entities.
