FaceTec
In this latest installment of our New Member Highlight, we catch up with Faith Contreras from new NACCU member FaceTec.
Talk about the history of your company.
Founded in 2013, FaceTec is the world’s leading provider of 3D Liveness and 3D Face Verification software with staff in the United States, Brazil, Portugal, Mexico, and the UK. Operating at scale in over 85 countries, FaceTec Software now performs over 3.7 billion 3D Liveness Checks annualized for over 2 billion distinct human users. FaceTec protects governments and critical industries, including the US Department of Homeland Security, Canadian Parliament, PayPal, Match Group, and hundreds of other large organizations on six continents.
What does your company do?
A global force in the fight against identity fraud, and for use on standard, ubiquitous digital devices, FaceTec’s patented biometric security software solutions provide exceptionally secure, remote, unsupervised identity verification and authentication, ensuring that only the legitimate account owner is allowed access to their valuable or sensitive digital services, assets, and systems in high-risk/high-value data environments. FaceTec’s ID verification software preserves individual privacy by operating inside its partners’ and customers’ firewalls without end-user PII or biometric data being sent to FaceTec. Featuring 3D Liveness, a full range of 3D-2D face matching calls, and photo ID scan technology, the FaceTec software suite can be used with or without a 3D Liveness Check. A full video tour of FaceTec software can be found at https://youtube.com/watch?v=IUOygMbhNO4.
What products and services do you provide specifically to campus card operations?
FaceTec offers a URCode that binds a person to a document, ID card, etc. The URCode is a digitally signed barcode for ID verification that can store trusted face data and empower safe, secure, low-cost, 2-party remote identity verification at infinite scale. Once an Issuing Authority adds UR Codes to its identity documents, cardholders can be verified remotely in a 2-party transaction.
