authID (NASDAQ: AUID), a leading provider of biometric identity verification and authentication solutions, today released a comprehensive whitepaper detailing innovative approaches to combat the rising threat of deepfake fraud in digital authentication systems. The whitepaper, titled "Deepfake Countermeasures," provides crucial insights into deepfakes as the next generation in fraud attacks, as well as cutting-edge defensive strategies against presentation and injection attacks.
The increasing sophistication of AI platforms means attackers can use a single photo to synthesize deepfake videos. authID's report presents a critical framework for organizations to protect against a spike in identity fraud attempts and leverages authID's proprietary multi-layered detection system, which achieves a billion-to-one false-match accuracy rate. authID’s platform detects the liveness of each authentication attempt, preventing the use of pictures, videos and deepfakes for spoofing identities, known as presentation attacks.
"As deepfake technology continues to advance exponentially, traditional authentication methods are increasingly vulnerable," said Rhon Daguro, CEO of authID.
"Our report demonstrates that combining advanced AI with privacy-first, facial biometric authentication creates an unprecedented level of security while maintaining seamless user experience, including a market-leading matching speed of 35 milliseconds and unparalleled accuracy."
With more than two in five fraud attempts in the financial sector currently fueled by AI, the industry has reached a tipping point in the fight against deepfakes.
Shares in AUID gained four cents to $4.93.
