Sensory leverages voice, facial biometrics in TrulySecure 2.0 on-device authentication solution

TrulySecure 2.0 is the first face-and-voice solution to be certified by the FIDO (Fast IDentity Online) Alliance, Mozer said.

 “It’s a real nice solution today with convenience for reasonable accuracy, and we do layer voice on top to get the best accuracy,” he said. “And, when we put face and voice together, it’s better than fingerprint, and it’s way better than a PIN code.”

Sensory was able to improve its facial technology with the release of TrulySecure 1.0, which included an agreement that let users download the application for free in return for allowing Sensory to access “tens of millions” of user images from myriad devices in different environments, Mozer said. These images were used for testing purposes to determine the security and accuracy of the facial technology that has been implemented in TrulySecure 2.0, he said.

“The error rate for both voice and face has dropped about 90% from 1.0 to 2.0—and they were really good in 1.0,” Mozer said. “In 2.0, we’re really pushing the state of the art forward in embedded devices.”

This approach captured the attention of Darrell Geusz, founder of the ID Trust Network and veteran identity subject matter expert.

“We recently assessed Sensory’s TrulySecure 2.0 technology and accredited Sensory’s testing results for enrollment and verification, and were left very impressed,” Geusz said in a prepared statement. “Sensory’s implementation of multiple techniques for combining different biometric modalities delivers high accuracy and novel user flexibility.

“We were very pleased that Sensory’s testing incorporated a large set of real-world data collected from a much larger variety of devices and uncontrollable operating environments. This really sets Sensory apart from their competition, and allows us to confidently say that Sensory meets or exceeds industry requirement for biometric accuracy.”
