Challenge

We aim to create a seamless user experience for our biometric authentication product BioHash, which supports sign-in and sign-up using facial recognition across any browser with any camera. The challenge is to maintain a consistent user experience across different devices without introducing complexity. Critical aspects like liveness checks (to prevent spoofing) and device authorization must be carefully integrated to enhance security and reliability. The solution should prioritize ease of use while addressing these advanced security concerns.

Background information

Our biometric authentication solution, BioHash, is the product of our EU- and Schleswig-Holstein-funded grant project, BEKI (Biometrische Erkennung mittels Künstlicher Intelligenz). BioHash focuses on delivering a GDPR-compliant biometric authentication process. By emphasizing user privacy and data security, BioHash aligns with the latest regulatory requirements, offering a reliable and secure authentication framework.
