Biometric MFA for Advanced Security, Fraud Detection, & Access Control

“Smile for the Camera”—Secure, User-Friendly Authentication for High-Risk Actions

Elevate Security & Trust with Biometric MFA

Traditional MFA methods like passwords and OTPs are increasingly vulnerable to phishing and social engineering attacks. iComply’s Biometric Multi-Factor Authentication introduces a robust layer of security by integrating:

  • Facial Recognition: Verifies the user’s identity through unique facial features.

  • Hybrid Liveness Detection: Combines passive and active checks to confirm the presence of a live user, thwarting spoofing attempts.

  • Edge Computing: Processes biometric data locally on the user’s device, enhancing privacy and reducing latency.

This approach ensures that only legitimate users can perform sensitive actions, such as updating personal information or initiating high-value transactions.

How Does Biometric MFA Work?

Trigger-Based Step-Up Security
iComply allows your system to prompt users for biometric verification — like a smile — only when risk thresholds are met. This minimizes friction while maximizing assurance.

Hybrid Liveness + Facial Recognition
Our AI models detect biometric spoofing using frame-by-frame facial analysis, 3D mapping, and behavioral cues. This approach outperforms traditional selfie uploads or single-image checks.

Device-Level Processing for Privacy
Unlike most vendors, iComply uses on-device edge computing to process and encrypt biometric data locally. This means biometric templates never leave the user’s device, protecting your business from liability and complying with GDPR, SOC2, and PIPEDA.

Modular MFA Flows
Use facial recognition in tandem with email OTPs, TOTP apps, or WebAuthn hardware keys. Configure authentication flows dynamically for login, onboarding, or high-risk event verification.

Interoperable and Enterprise-Ready
Deploy via SDK, white-labeled portal, or RESTful API. Integrates easily into your compliance case management, workflow automation, or transaction monitoring stack.

FIDO2 & WebAuthn Compliant
iComply’s solution meets FIDO Alliance standards, supporting passwordless login, biometric-based authentication, and cryptographic key exchange protocols.

Global Biometric MFA Coverage

iComply supports real-time biometric identity verification and facial recognition MFA in 195 countries, supporting over 14,000 government-issued IDs and 142 official languages.

This includes full-stack support for jurisdictions requiring national ID, passport, or driver license authentication, enabling localized compliance while maintaining global scalability.

I love that we can adjust for regulatory changes or business needs without a big software build.
