Fraud Prevention and Online Authentication Report 2019/2020Onfido will continue to deliver AI-powered identity verification and will expand to provide user re-authentication solution to bunq users. Applicants simply take a photo of their government-issued identity document (ID) using their smartphone and the AI-enhanced technology assesses if it seems genuine.
Users then take a video selfie and Onfido’s biometric analysis compares it to the ID to verify if it matches the user. The process detects fraudulent documents and spoofing attempts while providing legitimate users a frictionless onboarding experience, according to the official press release.
The challenger bank is expanding its partnership with Onfido for its user re-authentication solution for users looking to reset their passwords and resolve account lockouts. When high risk is detected around a customer account, Onfido lets users easily authenticate by simply taking a selfie.
