iProov, the world's leading provider of science-based biometric identity verification solutions, launched iProov Workforce MFA today. This device-independent, FIDO Alliance-certified, biometric authentication solution helps organizations mitigate the risk of one of workforce security’s most crucial concerns: account takeover. Using biometric authentication as part of an MFA process adds an irrefutable layer of identity confirmation to help organizations prevent significant financial losses, reputational damage, and operational disruptions. The solution can be used in conjunction with passkeys, or independently of the device, enabling it to run on users’ personal and shared devices. It also reduces the exposure and costs associated with password resets while offering cross-platform compatibility and a more streamlined user authentication process. iProov Workforce MFA supports the OpenID Connect (OIDC) protocol enabling a no-code integration with major identity providers like Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, OneLogin, Ping Identity, SailPoint, and Saviynt.

iProov, the world's leading provider of science-based biometric identity verification solutions, released its annual Threat Intelligence Report 2025 today.

New research from iProov, the world's leading provider of science-based solutions for biometric identity verification, reveals that most people can’t identify deepfakes – those incredibly realistic AI-generated videos and images often designed to impersonate people. The study tested 2,000 UK and US consumers, exposing them to a series of real and deepfake content. The results are alarming: only 0.1% of participants could accurately distinguish real from fake content across all stimuli which included images and video.

iProov, a leading provider of science-based biometric identity solutions, today delivered its quarterly business update, highlighted by a surge of 63% in transaction volume on its platform compared with the same timeframe last year. The identity verification market is showing consistent growth, fueled by the rapid digitization of services, and the escalating threat of sophisticated cyberattacks, particularly deepfakes that leverage generative AI.

The risk of deepfakes is rising with almost half of organizations (47%) having encountered a deepfake and three-quarters of them (70%) believing deepfake attacks which are created using generative AI tools, will have a high impact on their organizations. Yet perceptions of AI are hopeful as two thirds of organizations (68%) believe that while it’s impactful at creating cybersecurity threats, more (84%) find it’s instrumental in protecting against them. This is according to a new global survey of technology decision-makers from iProov, a leading provider of science-based biometric identity solutions, which also found three quarters (75%) of solutions being implemented to address the deepfake threat are biometric solutions.

iProov, a leading provider of science-based biometric identity solutions, announces today its Dynamic Liveness Solution, the science powering the iProov Biometric Solution Suite’s Remote Onboarding and Authentication solutions, is the first to achieve the new global certification on face biometric identity verification from the FIDO Alliance. The FIDO Alliance is an open industry association whose mission is to reduce the world’s reliance on passwords. This program is the premier certification to assess the performance and usability of remote identity verification systems based on facial biometrics.

Four out of five (79%) Americans believe there must be a more secure solution than passwords to access important sites like banking and government services. Facial biometrics has emerged as the front-runner to replace passwords, with seven in ten Americans stating that they are likely to use it to verify their identity at financial institutions and for government websites provided clear assurances can be given on how their data is used and stored. That’s according to a new independent survey of 2,000 US consumers published today by iProov, a leading provider of science-based biometric identity solutions.

iProov, the leading provider of science-based biometric identity solutions, today launched The iProov Threat Intelligence Report 2024: The Impact of Generative AI on Remote Identity Verification. iProov’s report examines the remote identity verification threat landscape, providing first-hand insights into the anatomy of a digital injection attack and exposing bad actor methodologies, threat trends, and impacts. The report is created using data and expert analysis by the iProov Security Operations Center (iSOC).

This year, the volume of AI-generated identity attacks has escalated to such a level that it has become a topic of consideration for consumers, organizations, and even world leaders. Biometrics stands as a transformative force in reshaping how individuals interact with digital systems and how organizations safeguard sensitive information. As 2024 edges ever closer, the digital identity landscape is poised for significant advances, with innovations set to redefine verification, elevate security standards, and enhance user experiences.
