BiometrIQ and ID R&D announce strategic partnership

BiometrIQ, a Lublin-based technology company, has selected ID R&D as its preferred vendor and strategic partner for identity verification and authentication. ID R&D’s unique technology will enable BiometrIQ to extend its portfolio of services and offer complete identity solutions that include award-winning voice biometricsand best-in-class frictionless facial and document liveness detection.

Businesses and government agencies spend trillions of dollars each year to prevent fraudulent transactions. Thousands of companies aim to replace legacy password-based authentication systems with next-generation biometrics-based technologies. Biometric authentication uses one’s inherent and unique physical and behavioural characteristics, such as face, voice, or fingerprint to verify their identity.

Biometric authentication is being rapidly adopted due to its security advantages, high reliability, and ease of use as compared to methods such as passwords. Since customers value flexibility in their authentication methods, it is important to provide them with a range of biometric alternatives.

“By incorporating ID R&D identity verification and authentication technologies into our portfolio of biometric subsystems, we are able to broaden the capabilities of our solution with best-in-class technologies that have demonstrated top-ranking performance in international challenges,” says Andrzej Tymecki, COO at BiometrIQ.

“Our customers increasingly favour virtual meetings as an outcome of recent years of COVID-related contact restrictions. Remote work opens new perspectives and advantages but also calls for new authentication methods," adds Paweł Michocki, CEO at BiometrIQ. “Thanks to this strategic alliance with ID R&D, we are able to provide the Polish market a wide range of biometric solutions that are more secure and also more convenient. Our customers will certainly benefit from the alliance.”

“ID R&D is proud to partner with BiometrIQ – one of the fastest-growing biometric companies in Poland – to reach more customers with frictionless biometric security,” commented Alexey Khitrov, CEO and Co-Founder of ID R&D. “Our IDLive® facial liveness and document liveness detection products enable BiometrIQ to protect against critical attack vectors without complicating the user experience. Our IDVoice® product includes a rich feature set and has ranked first in accuracy in several recent speaker verification algorithm challenges.”
