Identy.io provides biometric authentication on mobile phones, for secure and user-friendly identity verification, enabling government and corporate customers to grow operations with a cost-effective suite of products.
Over the past few years, the internet has become one of the main tools facilitating financial inclusion. So much so that financial transactions conducted remotely now far outnumber those conducted in person. For example, in Colombia, it is estimated that eight out of ten financial transactions are now conducted online,
The global retail sector is at one of the most momentous points in its history. In Mexico, this sector already contributes approximately 10% of the country’s GDP, while in Brazil, its economic weight exceeded $231.08 billion by 2025. In Colombia, the sector reached $117.48 billion last year, compared to $65
Biometric authentication is only as strong as its ability to tell a real person from a spoof. As attackers shift from printed photos to 3D silicone masks and deepfakes, presentation attack detection (PAD) — the technology that stops these spoofs — has become a core requirement for any serious identity
Open finance represents one of the most significant transformations in the financial industry in recent years. This model enables users to share their financial data, as well as information from other domains such as insurance, investments, or pensions, with various entities including banks, fintechs, and insurers, always with their explicit
Remote identity proofing now relies on document capture, selfie verification, and automated face comparison at scale. Traditional KYC and basic face matching were built to confirm likeness and document evidence, not to prove that a camera stream is genuine or that submitted media has not been synthetically altered. NIST now
Over the last few years, Artificial Intelligence has become one of the most recognized and widely used technologies, not only by end users, but also by companies around the world. Its ability to quickly solve complex problems and automate tasks has put this technology in the spotlight, to such an
The digitization that the healthcare sector is undergoing, through the integration of different digital technologies in areas such as prevention or the treatment and monitoring of diseases, represents one of the biggest changes that this industry has undergone in recent years. This innovation has transformed the way patients and medical
The “best ABIS” is the one that makes identity decisions dependable when volume explodes: national registries, border systems, and digital onboarding funnels that must screen users in seconds. An automated biometric identification system supports both verification (1:1) and identification (1:N) by storing and matching biometric data at operational speed. Detect
Human trafficking continues to be among the most serious and complex human rights violations worldwide. It is a silent, highly organized crime that is difficult to detect, relying on the vulnerability of victims and the manipulation of their identity to facilitate their recruitment, transfer, and exploitation. In this context, biometric
As financial institutions and governments digitize services, identity theft has emerged as a top business risk. Cybercriminals now use AI deepfakes and synthetic identities to bypass traditional safeguards. Robust identity theft protection software must therefore blend advanced detection (dark-web scanning, AI anomaly analysis), passwordless/FIDO-compliant authentication, and strong compliance controls. Leading
We are living at the dawn of the age of artificial intelligence (AI), a technology that, since its widespread adoption in 2021, is revolutionizing everything at an astonishing speed. From entertainment to productivity, AI is everywhere, and among the tools that are having the greatest impact are deepfakes, especially in
On-device biometric authentication, using a customer’s own smartphone or tablet to verify identity via fingerprint biometric, facial biometric, or other biometric sensors, has emerged as a leading strategy for securing mobile banking. Unlike traditional OTP or server-side systems, on-device biometrics keeps sensitive templates on the user’s device, reducing fraud risk
