The technology
What is facial biometric authentication?
Facial biometric authentication verifies identity by analyzing a person's unique facial geometry and confirming a live person is physically present.
Unlike a password or token, a face cannot be guessed, stolen, or handed off. The result is a verification method that gives the right person access, not just that someone has the right credential.
1Kosmos delivers enterprise facial biometric authentication through LiveID, built for workforce access, service desk security, and customer fraud prevention in an era where AI-generated deepfakes make traditional verification unreliable.
The problem
Passwords and MFA can’t verify who is actually there
Passwords prove knowledge and push notifications prove possession, but neither proves who is actually present.
As deepfakes grow more convincing and common, every authentication gap becomes an entry point for social engineering, account takeover, and point-of-sale fraud.
The solution
Live facial biometrics that confirm presence and identity
LiveID by 1Kosmos requires physical presence. Using the device's front-facing camera, it confirms a real, live person matches their enrolled identity, with liveness detection that rules out spoofing and deepfakes before any match is attempted.
Enrollment takes under a minute, and every subsequent verification runs in seconds. Biometric data is encrypted on-device before storage, leaving no raw biometric database to compromise.
