Fintech Futures’ recognition of HRB and authID’s Verified platform demonstrates how biometrics strengthen digital banking and reduces the risk of identity fraud, mitigates password risk, and ultimately deliver seamless, trusted banking experiences for customers. Businesses that incorporate secure cloud-based biometric identity authentication will gain higher assurance of the user behind the device and an indisputable audit trail for valued transactions.
To achieve this award, contestants must prove their successful application of a security or anti-fraud solution that has helped to protect customer transactions at any stage of the banking process or has protected users from fraud more holistically. HRB demonstrated how security and fraud prevention improvements were made, as well as the larger impact it has had on their digital transformation.
The use of facial biometric authentication within digital banking is the most sensible way to improve customer experience as well as the speed –of business. Instead of taking weeks or months to onboard a customer, banks can use Verified to enroll a new account in just minutes. Customers don’t have to worry about someone impersonating them with a photo pulled off the Internet; both active and passive liveness ensure that account takeover, identity theft, or other digital fraud don’t plague systems and users, which saves businesses money and protects their reputation in the long run.

Hamilton Reserve Bank is a prime example of how biometric authentication technology strengthens the intersection between security and business service lines – and we are proud to call them a partner.
