Identity & Biometrics Insights (week 42)
The G2 Weekly Podcast delivers insights into the world of identity and biometrics. Each week, the podcast will cover important developments in the field, making it a valuable resource for professionals in various sectors.
(October 15, 2024 - October 22, 2024)
● The increasing use of biometrics in everyday life, such as for unlocking devices, is raising privacy concerns. A report from Aware shows that over half of users utilize biometrics for authentication, but 41% have limited trust in how companies manage their biometric data.
● Mastercard is expanding the use of biometric authentication in its payment systems. The company is rolling out its Payment Passkey Service to the Middle East and North Africa, following a launch in India. This service replaces one-time passwords with more secure options like fingerprint or facial recognition.
● The development of the EU Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet is facing potential delays due to debates among EU member states. Germany, France, the Netherlands, and Spain have proposed an alternative draft for the wallet's implementing acts, with a focus on privacy and interoperability.
● Synthetic identity fraud continues to pose a significant threat, and the Social Security Administration's eCBSV service has struggled to effectively address it. The GAO reports that 80% of new account fraud is linked to synthetic identities, highlighting the need for improved solutions.
● Experts discussed the potential and challenges of passkeys for online payment authentication at the Authenticate 2024 conference. Mastercard, Visa, and Stripe executives emphasized the need for layered security, combining passkeys with other factors to meet regulatory standards.
