Carol Masser: 我体验过在机场过海关时，海关人员会使用面部验证来确认我的身份。这让我意识到面部识别和面部验证之间存在重要的区别。面部验证似乎更侧重于确认我是否是我所声称的那个人，而不是在人群中识别我。 Andrew Budd: 作为iProove的创始人，我致力于开发安全可靠的身份验证方法。面部验证与面部识别有着根本的不同。面部验证是赋予用户权力，让他们能够安全地使用自己的面部来验证身份，并且是在用户知情和同意的情况下进行的，同时保护用户的隐私。而面部识别则更多地是在未经用户同意的情况下识别个人，这可能涉及到监控和追踪。我们的技术着重于确保用户在远程环境中的身份真实性，例如开设银行账户或重置密码时，防止深度伪造等欺诈行为。我们通过改变物理环境，使用户的面部被设备屏幕上快速变化的颜色序列照亮，并分析这些颜色反射，从而检测和阻止深度伪造的攻击。此外，我们不断分析全球范围内的数据，以便及时发现和应对新的安全威胁。总而言之，我坚信面部验证在保护个人身份和信息安全方面具有重要作用，并且将在未来得到更广泛的应用。

Chapters
This chapter explores the key differences between facial recognition and facial verification technologies. Facial verification, unlike facial recognition, prioritizes user consent and provides a benefit to the user, enhancing security by using the face as an unstealable credential.
  • Facial verification empowers the citizen by using their face to secure their own identity with consent and benefits.
  • Facial recognition identifies people, often without consent, for organizational purposes and surveillance.
  • A face ID on an iPhone is facial verification, not facial recognition.

Having experienced the devastating consequences of online criminal activity, founder and CEO, Andrew Bud, vowed to find a safe and secure way for organizations to verify the genuine presence of an individual. To enable this to happen it was necessary to ensure that the person setting up an online account was an actual person, and then authenticate that person whenever they return to use a digital service or verify their identity at secure locations.The Big Idea was to use facial biometrics and controlled illumination to assure the genuine presence of a human being. Why facial biometrics? Because most government-issued identity documents contain a picture of a face and an identity can be verified against a trusted source. Why controlled illumination? Because it’s completely effortless for the user – with no instructions to follow or complex actions required. Just a brief, simple selfie capture that takes just seconds to complete. This gives the most secure assurance that an individual is not an imposter, a photo, a mask, a deepfake video, or a multitude of other sophisticated cyber attack tactics being used by criminal gangs worldwide. iProov does facial verification, not facial recognition. The difference is, with verification tech like iProov's, the user consents, and derives a benefit from it.
