The leader in privacy-preserving human authentication software is ready to secure social media
SUMMERLIN, Nev., April 26, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- FaceTec, Inc., the global leader in 3D Liveness and Face Matching software, announced today that it stands ready to "Defeat the spam bots and authenticate all humans" on all social media platforms.
FaceTec® now enables over 600,000,000 3D Liveness Checks annually for hundreds of customers on six continents, and is regarded as the most secure Liveness software in the world because of its $200,000 Spoof Bounty Program. First launched in October 2019, the bounty program has resulted in FaceTec's AI successfully defending over 110,000 spoof and bypass attacks. FaceTec's 3D Liveness Detection is the first to be certified to Levels 1 & 2 in NIST-accredited lab Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) testing and continues to significantly raise the security bar with the world's only spoof bounty program.
"We work with many of the largest dating apps and e-commerce sites in the world to stop catphishing, fake accounts, and fraud," said Kevin Alan Tussy, FaceTec CEO. "But we have been disappointed that more social media companies haven't been proactive in seeking out our privacy-preserving, on-prem 3D Liveness, and Age Check capabilities. It appears that social media didn't actually want to stop the spam bots, perhaps because it would've negatively affected user metrics. But, that looks to be changing, and FaceTec stands ready to empower social media with 3D Liveness detection to ensure that only real humans are allowed on the platforms."
FaceTec's 3D Liveness Detection has been trained with tens-of-millions of digital and physical spoof artifacts that include high-res photos and videos (including thousands of deepfakes), mannequin heads, and life-like masks.

FaceTec's $200,000 Spoof Bounty program provides a large incentive for white hat hackers to attack its software and help uncover any unknown vulnerabilities in the Liveness AI before a customer or end-user is ever affected. If any vulnerabilities are found, they can be quickly patched, further elevating FaceTec's 3D Liveness security.
The bounty program comprises Levels 1 & 2 in NIST/ISO 30107-3 PAD testing; Level 3, which NIST-affiliated labs have never tested for; and Level 4 and Level 5 bypasses, addressing the full spectrum attack vectors. Level 4 is Biometric Template Tampering, and Level 5 is Camera Bypasses, which includes camera hijacking, emulators, and video injection.
