Our Advantage

The 1Kosmos LiveID Advantage

LiveID is the foundation of 1Kosmos’ advanced biometric authentication. Our strong biometricbased identity provides flexible levels of identity assurance and provides a superior passwordless experience. 1Kosmos LiveID is a feature that gives organizations the highest level of assurance for the identity on the other side of digital engagement. LiveID is used for account enrollment and onboarding to ensure that the user is real, human, and not a bot or somebody trying to spoof the identity.

When the selfie is captured, 1Kosmos performs a built-in liveness check, which can be configured for passive verification. The selfie captured is compared to the image captured during the document verification step. The selfie must match the captured image, increasing the level of assurance of the user’s identity and can be used for biometric authentication.

When enrolling a user, LiveID leverages the front-facing camera on the mobile device (selfie camera), or desktop camera, and records a video of the user. Once LiveID has determined the user is real in front of the camera, LiveID will capture a ”selfie” of the user.

For authentication, LiveID will again make sure that the person in front of the device is live, capture a selfie to ensure an identity match, and authenticate the user.

For additional assurance levels, LiveID can be implemented for password resets and account recovery use cases to ensure these types of requests are only performed by legitimate verified users.

Our strong biometric-based identity provides flexible levels of identity assurance and provides a passwordless experience.
