Apple has replaced the Touch ID fingerprint recognition on the iPhone X with the recognition system person που ονομάζεται Face ID. Παρόλο όμως που η εταιρεία ισχυρίζεται ότι το σύστημα είναι safe, tests have proven that the specific technology it has probably failed.
These security concerns have made banks slow to make decisions on the procase of the technology in their mobile apps that carry out transactions, and claim that Apple has yet to prove that the new technology is more secure than Touch ID.
A publication of Korea Herald claims that at least 20 local banks have so far voiced concerns about Face ID, especially after tests have shown that the system can be bypassed by twins and hackers with specially designed masks.
"It is difficult for us to adopt the biometric technology of iPhone X, since it normally takes some time to undergo various procedures security. In addition, the facial verification technology is not fully proven,” said a Kookmin Bank employee.
On the other hand, there are several banks, both in the United States and around the world, which confirm that Face ID will be added to e-commerce applications sometime in the near future.
So far, however, facial recognition does not seem to be the best solution, as all the tests that have been done have shown that they could bypass Apple's security with the necessary know-how and resources.
On the other hand, there are rumors that face recognition technology will be added to all iPhone models from next year, while Touch ID is unlikely to be seen on Apple's top devices.
