NEC’s Authentication Solution Supports Multiple Use Cases.


  • Enhanced User Registration: NEC’s facial recognition biometrics simplifies user registration. The user's facial biometrics are mapped and securely stored by submitting a selfie during sign-up. This data becomes a part of the user's digital profile, providing a fast and secure authentication method that surpasses traditional password-based systems.
  • Password-Free Authentication: Our system provides a hassle-free recovery process in case of a forgotten password. Users can capture a live video of themselves, which our sophisticated algorithms will compare to the real-time biometric data related to their profile. This method not only ensures that account recovery is accessible and user-friendly but also significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access.

Application of Biometrics and Digital ID


Application of Biometrics and Digital ID

Biometrics lets you build your base of users with confidence. Each account holder has one face, and the biometric formula derived from that face will be recognized if the user tries to open another account under a different email login name and address.

Some states use the same technology to prevent identity fraud when evaluating new driver's licenses and social service benefits requests.

Award-winning NEC biometrics algorithms and the NEC platform are far more reliable than typical device-based systems, which can be circumvented. If a user loses their phone, re-establishing secure accounts on the new device is faster with NEC biometric verification.

How NEC’s Facial Recognition Works


NEC’s Identity Services Integrate with Your App, Where the User Sets Up Their Digital Token.

NEC’s authentication solution addresses and enhances these use cases, offering a seamless, safe, personalized social media experience. Biometric Digital ID social media usage improves accessibility, security, and efficiency.

  • Selfie Capture: During registration, users will submit a selfie for a biometric template to be created and stored securely within their device.
  • Video Recording: The user provides a short video when a password reset is needed, and the NEC system extracts multiple biometric templates to compare against.
  • Facial Recognition: With this reset process, our algorithms analyze facial features and expressions, comparing them with the stored biometric profile.
  • Liveness Detection: Advanced liveness detection prevents spoofing by ensuring the video is not a pre-recorded image or a digital replica.
  • Profile Comparison: The system confirms the identity by matching the live video with the profile images on the account.
  • Access Restoration: Upon successful verification, users can reset their password, ensuring a smooth and secure process.
