Reusable digital identity provider ShareID has passed compliance assessments by CLR Labs for PAD and IAD.

The next running of DHS’ RIVR program will specifically target AI-generated ID documents and deepfakes, reflecting the altered threat environment for face biometrics.

And even Face ID, which popularized native device biometrics nearly a decade ago, is still improving.
