About this app

The BioID app is a multifactor user authenticator – see how well face recognition works today! Developers and companies can easily add biometric authentication to their mobile platforms with a few lines of code. Their end users can log in or authorize transactions securely and conveniently. Forget passwords. Be recognized.

EASY MULTIFACTOR AUTHENTICATION WITH MOBILE FACE RECOGNITION


WHY BIOMETRICS?

Password hacks make headlines almost every week: a password alone is not secure enough. And typing a long, complicated password on a mobile device is difficult and annoying. Multifactor authentication systems using factors like software/hardware tokens or biometric security are becoming more common.

Biometric authentication such as facial recognition verifies the physical presence of the user, for easy, strong multifactor authentication using only the user’s mobile device with no extra hardware needed.


WHAT DOES THE APP DO FOR ME?

The BioID app provides multifactor user authentication (biometrics + mobile device). It is a mobile client for BioID Connect, an identity service based on our BioID Web Service (BWS) – the original 'biometric as a service' with our patented 'fake defender' liveness detection – and supporting OpenID Connect and OAuth 2.0.

• End users can use it as a mobile authenticator to log in to any apps and websites that support the app (including our BWS developer portal).

• Developers and companies can easily add secure, convenient face recognition to their mobile platform (websites or native apps), without any knowledge of biometrics.

• Anyone can try out our biometric technology and see how well state-of-the-art face recognition works.

The app currently supports liveness detection against photo attacks, and challenge-response to prevent video replay attacks.

useless. a useful demo should give the option to lock 1 or 2 applications so we can see how the technology works on real life

Hello, thanks for your feedback! We want to show you how easy and reliably our technology works. With only two quick selfies you can get authenticated. Locking an application on your phone needs integration work which is highly individual depending on the device and particular application. You can test more at www.bioid.com/playground/. Team BioID

Would not let one get out of the app without either sign up or uninstalling..there was a choice. No test possible.

Hello Leon! In order to be able to verify you biometrically, we need a reference to compare your face features with. This is why you need to sign up, which is for free of course. Best, Team BioID

Good for maintaining security information that can be cross referenced in order to identify individuals faster.😘
