JUMIO, IPROOV COLLABORATE TO ROLL OUT PROVEN LIVENESS DETECTION SOLUTIONS WORLDWIDE

KUALA LUMPUR, April 8 (Bernama) -- Jumio, an AI-powered end-to-end identity verification and eKYC solutions provider, is partnering with iProov to roll out its proven liveness detection solutions worldwide.

Liveness detection enables Jumio to detect if a person is real — that is, it can distinguish between imagery of a live user present at the point of capture versus a fake from a spoofed artifact (such as a picture of a picture or deepfake video).

The partnership brings Liveness Assurance™ and Genuine Presence Assurance™ to enterprises globally, ensuring that the online user is genuine (not an imposter), physically present and not a sophisticated cyberattack using deepfakes or other synthetic media.

Via this partnership, Jumio’s customers will leverage the same iProov technology currently being used by the US Department of Homeland Security, the UK Home Office, the Australian Taxation Office and GovTech Singapore, among others.

“With iProov’s suite of liveness detection and presence assurance solutions, we can offer our customers the highest levels of security for online identity verification, without compromising the user experience,“ said Jumio Chief Executive Officer, Robert Prigge in a statement.

“iProov equips us with the upgraded flexibility needed to realise the opportunities of digital transformation with a simple, effective and powerful fraud deterrent that is trusted by a growing number of global banks, government bodies and digitally native enterprises.”

The iProov integration delivers a number of significant advantages to Jumio’s identity verification customers, including high conversion rates, fast onboarding, natural user experience and small software development kit size.
