HID Global recently announced that HID Approve™, its two-factor mobile authentication and verification platform, now supports Apple's iPhone X's Face ID facial recognition system. HID Global expects facial recognition to play an increasingly important role in its authentication offerings, along with threat and fraud detection. "Given the increasing demand to offer users an optimal experience, facial recognition is a great contribution for banks and companies that also want to offer a high level of security," said Martin Ladstaetter, vice president of product management in the Identity and Access Management Solutions division (IAMS, by HID Global. "HID Global offers organizations an easy way to take advantage of Apple's Face ID feature with our HID Approve mobile authentication solution." Facial recognition is a tool offered by Apple's new iPhone X phone to protect access to online banking or mobile banking and digital signatures used in banking transactions. Apple's Face ID feature can also be used to protect remote access to employee data and apps. HID Global customers can now deploy Face ID easily, using the company's mobile authentication platform, either as a comprehensive application or directly incorporated into existing corporate applications using the HID Approve Software Development Kit (SDK). In addition, Face ID technology allows iPhone X users to securely make payments from their cell phone and perform unlocks and authentications with it. This means that this device does not have a fingerprint reader or home button, it is enough with the user's face for the equipment to be unlocked, since with its facial recognition technology it is possible that, looking at the screen thanks to a camera and infrared system, the features of the user authorized to manipulate the cell phone are recognized. - Publicidad - HID Global has the ability to combine facial recognition technology with threat detection and other risk-based intelligence so that organizations can more quickly recognize potential fraud or misuse, while improving and personalizing the user experience. The company is developing new features that make it easier for financial institutions to detect cyber threats such as malware, hijacking programs, application hacking, transactions and fraudulent electronic messages. Facial recognition will play a key role in the implementation of these capabilities, enabling valuable data to help power predictive analytics and other artificial intelligence (AI) functions. It is worth mentioning that the iPhone X arrived in Latin America at the end of 2017, where Mexican and Puerto Rican customers, for example, had the opportunity to book it since last October; in Colombia, Chile and Brazil this device was launched on the market in December 2017. ![Santiago Jaramillo](https://www.ventasdeseguridad.com/images/latinpress/editor-sjaramillo.jpeg) Santiago JaramilloEmail: sjaramillo@latinpressinc.com Editor Comunicador social y periodista con más de 15 años de trayectoria en medios digitales e impresos especializados para América Latina.
