Η MasterCard αναφέρει ότι σχεδιάζει να φέρει τις selfie φωτογραφίες ως έλεγχο ασφαλείας σε περισσότερες από δώδεκα χώρες.
Η company started last year to try face recognition technology to validate a user's identity, and after a year of testing says he plans to deliver this capability to users, especially after the positive reactions he had from the testers.
To use its customers MasterCard a selfie photo as security to make one payment θα πρέπει να κατεβάσουν την εφαρμογή της εταιρείας στο τηλέφωνο ή το tablet τους. Στη συνέχεια για να κάνουν μία online Πληρωμή θα πρέπει να κάνουν εισαγωγή τα στοιχεία της πιστωτικής κάρτας τους και μετά να κρατήσουν τη συσκευή τους απέναντι από το πρόσωπό τους για να λάβουν μια γρήγορη selfie Φωτογραφία.
Users will have to open their eyes to show that you are not just holding a photo in front of the camera, and according to MasterCard, there are algorithms in her software that can tell her if someone tries to trick the system by using a video.
The company adds that the facial recognition system it should only be used in certain cases, i.e. when further authentication is required.
O Ajay Bhalla, president of MasterCard in the company's security solutions, says the company is looking at other security measures beyond fingerprint and face recognition sensors. According to her, an alternative could be to identify heart beats using a sensor that would read a person's electrocardiogram.
MasterCard did its first tests with heartbeat recognition late last year using the Nymi Band. He states that he had very positive reactions from these tests which took place in Canada and the Netherlands. Bhalla adds that, while the fingerprints or facial recognition through selfies requires user input, heartbeat recognition can be performed seamlessly in the background. You can only wear a bracelet that will send a signal to the company's device to prove you are you.
