Remote Biometric Digital KYC: The banking and payments industry is the world’s fastest adopter of new technology innovations. It is always critical for nations and authorities to safeguard financial sector security, minimize system anomalies, and provide consumers with simplicity of use. Nonetheless, financial losses due to fraud in banking and transactions have resulted in a loss of more than 32 billion dollars worldwide in 2020, according to a Merchant Savvy analysis.

On the other hand, increased competition in the BFSI Industry necessitates industry players to give consumers a new-age banking experience, ensuring a far smoother journey at each stage of the banking lifecycle while also ensuring maximum security.

Leading the Evolution: Remote Biometric Digital KYC Solutions Explored

Biocube’s BioKYC, which includes multi-factor biometrics and liveness verification, as well as integrated compliances on AML, PEP, and Sanction check, ensures a super-convenient and fool-proof customer due diligence (CDD) process for new customer onboarding and account opening seamlessly, entirely in a remote self-service mode on customers’ own devices.

The BioKYC module is extremely customizable from the backend, allowing clients to add/remove checking factors quickly and vary the risk threshold, ensuring a completely tamperproof KYC procedure and making consumers’ lives easier.

Multi-Factor Biometrics Authentication-Based Secure Transactions

Biometric Authentication has evolved into one of the most effective and dependable techniques for combating identity theft. Biometrics has matured as a technology innovation arena, from fingerprint to voice print to face recognition and then into many more elements such as eye recognition, palm recognition, and so on, particularly in connection with Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning

Multi-factor Biometric Authentication (MBFA) is a way of validating a person’s identity by employing two or more factors and permitting secure login, transaction, or access.”

Furthermore, in today’s digital age, mobile devices and the internet have become ubiquitous mediums for each of us to access various services and conduct transactions in a variety of forms – the majority of which are sensitive in nature, requiring authentication of the user’s identity to authorize these transactions or deliver verified services. Particularly post-pandemic, the need for remote methods of service provision has become increasingly prevalent.

Multi-factor biometrics adds additional layers of authentication to the system, making it more accurate, durable, and tamperproof. Furthermore, the inclusion of AI makes biometric engines smarter – the AI analyses and weights individual elements about the login attempt to generate a risk score for the scenario.

Biocube has created the world’s most unique, proprietary (patent-filed) Biometric multifactor-multimodal authentication platform, which is available on smartphones as well as a wide range of other devices such as tablets, laptops, and IP cameras, lowering the cost of technology adoption while ensuring user convenience and security with guaranteed ROI.
