New Liveness Testing Solution from Onfido

Onfido, a leading global digital identity verification and authentication provider, has released ‘Motion’, a next generation biometric liveness solution to enhance its ‘Real Identity Platform’. Motion is iBeta Level 2 certified, which means it is designed to protect against more sophisticated attacks, such as those with 3D masks.

The certification tests are conducted in accordance with the ISO/IEC 30107-3 standard and in alignment with the ISO/ IEC 30107-1 framework for presentation attack detection (PAD), says Onfido.

Motion is built on Onfido’s AI technology Atlas, ensuring users benefit from AI that is fast, accurate, and fair, with next generation fraud detection performance on a global level. The company claims that with Motion, user bias is reduced across all ethnicities, thanks to advanced machine learning models. These models have been trained to identify hundreds of thousands of fraud samples and analyse different elements of an identity document and facial biometric to stop fraud and reduce bias.

The Onfido Real Identity Platform is designed to secure trust between organisations and their customers throughout the customer lifecycle. It automatically verifies a customer’s identity using a combination of document and biometric verification, trusted data sources, and passive fraud signals.

With the addition of Motion, Onfido claims, 95% of users can be onboarded in 10 seconds or less, with false rejection rates and false acceptance rates of less than 0.1%.

The micro-mobility and scooter platform Check is one of the first Onfido customers to use Motion: ‘Using Motion, it’s very clear to our customers what is being asked of them when being verified,’ said Rick van’t Hof, Product Owner, Check. ‘It enables them to set up an account in seconds and be on their way on one of our mopeds, while enabling us to keep operating costs low and run efficiently as an agile and high- growth business.’ 

‘In today’s fast-paced digital world, providing the best user experience is everything. Consumers demand to be able to access products and services in seconds whilst also knowing they are secure,’ said Alex Valle, Chief Product Officer, Onfido. ‘Motion helps achieve this, with a biometric liveness solution that provides simple, fair and secure access to online services from banking and gaming to crypto, rental cars and scooters.’
