What is Smart ReAuth™?

Smart ReAuth™ provides a seamless, passwordless authentication solution that leverages facial recognition and liveness detection to offer additional security with less friction than legacy multi-factor authentication methods.

During enrollment, the user goes through a complete identity verification transaction to confirm the user as a trusted, authenticated individual. Upon consent, an encrypted biometric template is stored with a unique identifier to be used next time an authentication is needed.

From that point on, the user can authenticate instantly by taking a selfie—without repeating a full identity verification. Liveness detection and other anti-spoofing checks are performed during the selfie to ensure a person is who they claim to be.

Why Smart ReAuth™?

Smart ReAuth™ offers instant reauthentication for your users: the perfect combination of added security with a better user experience. Smart ReAuth™ also eliminates password fatigue.

 

Smart ReAuth Benefits
Improves the Customer Experience

Smart ReAuth™’s biometric authentication workflow can reduce the need for cumbersome processes or an outdated authentication method, like Knowledge-Based Authentication or passwords that can be easily lost, forgotten, or stolen. With AuthenticID’s quick, easy selfie capture the user can be verified in less than one second by just looking at their phone.

Reduces Fraud Loss

Smart ReAuth™ enhances security for both businesses and customers. Companies can reduce risk of bad actors committing account theft as well as data breaches, because reauthentication can be triggered by events that could be higher risk: large purchases, account detail changes, or accessing sensitive data. Consumers can avoid identity theft and account takeovers.

FAQs about Reauthentication

READ MORE FAQs

Passwordless authentication software is a process by which organizations can verify the identity of a user without a password, security question, or PIN, so that a user can gain access to an app, account, or service. Passwordless authentication software is typically used in conjunction with other authentication processes, including multi-factor authentication (MFA) or single sign-on (SSO).

Passwordless authentication has become more popular as traditional authentication methods like passwords are easy to guess, are often stolen and appear on the dark web, or are forgotten by users. Passwordless authentication software gives users and organizations a higher level of security by minimizing the threat of common attacks like phishing and keylogging since it relies on using something the user has or something the user is, e.g. a biometric factor.

AuthenticID is a step above traditional passwordless authentication software as it has a quick, easy user experience. Users can be verified in less than one second simply by taking a selfie, which relies on AuthenticID’s cutting-edge AI and ML technology coupled with liveness detection for ultimate protection from fraud attempts. AuthenticID technology relies on facial recognition technology, a trusted and easy way to get additional security.

Smart ReAuth™ is a secure passwordless authentication as it relies on something the user has, the biometric factor of a selfie scan. By incorporating liveness detection into its process, users and organizations are protected against advanced spoofs.

All data is secure, as an encrypted biometric template is stored with a unique identifier to be used upon the next instance of authentication. Relying upon biometrics instead of passwords, PINs, or KBA questions means there is less chance a person’s credentials can be lost, forgotten, or stolen.

For reauthentication, the online account, platform, or system is set up to prompt users to re-enter their credentials after a certain amount of time. Users must provide their login credentials for each subsequent request to verify their identity and regain access to the system. This could include additional security measures like MFA, biometric verification, or answering security questions.
