VISEDGE - Visual Identity aSsurance for EDGE Cases

iProov是身份验证领域的先驱，采用我们称之为“012”的方法-零努力，一步，双因素认证。该公司创新了一套识别算法，结合了专业的人脸检测和移动设备技术。VISEDGE项目将这些功能扩展到“边缘情况”，将iprov服务扩展到以前无法识别的潜在用户。这对于服务的主流使用是至关重要的。iprov服务是作为一种基于云的身份验证服务提供给有安全意识的服务提供商，如金融机构、考试提供商、订阅服务提供商和需要精确识别用户的web服务。在这些系统中，与密码相关的登录机制一直存在问题，而生物识别登录服务具有明显的优势。VISEDGE项目将研究并结合候选算法，为困难的身份捕获情况提供强大的、基于证据的覆盖。这满足了高级潜在许可方的要求，他们要求解决方案的商业验证。今天，虽然大量的学术研究已经在高度具体的情况下进行，但没有商业数据存在于“野外”的身份捕获。VISEDGE是一个概念验证项目，它将使iproof的覆盖范围扩展到“边缘”情况，并提供一个证据基础，以满足商业实施之前的安全精明的潜在客户的需求。

iProov are a pioneer in the field of identity verification, with an approach we refer to as “012”– zero effort, one-step, two-factor authentication. The company has innovated a set ofidentification algorithms combining specialist face detection and mobile device technologies.The VISEDGE project extends these capabilities to ‘edge cases’, extending the iProov serviceto previously unidentifiable prospective users. This is critical for mainstream usage of theservice. The iProov service is provided as a cloud-based identity verification service tosecurity-conscious service providers, such as financial institutions, exam providers,subscription service providers and web services requiring precise identification of users.Password –related login mechanisms have long been problematic in these systems, and abiometric login service has distinct advantages.The VISEDGE project will research and combine candidate algorithms to provide robust andevidence-based coverage of difficult identity capture situations. This satisfies therequirements of advanced prospective licensees, who demand commercial validation ofsolutions. Today, although substantial academic research has been conducted in highlyspecific situations, no commercial data exists for identity capture ‘in the wild’. VISEDGE isa proof of concept project, which will enable the extension of iProov coverage to ‘edge’ cases,and provide an evidence base to satisfy the demands of security-savvy prospective customersin advance of commercial implementation.
