    How Do UR Codes Actually Work? A Deep Dive with FaceTec's Jay Meier

    On this week's episode of the ID Talk podcast, FaceTec's Jay Meier returns to answer some follow-up questions about his firm's innovative new "UR Code" solution. Whereas Jay had previously offered an overview of the solution, which essentially ties the biometric and biographic data of a registered individual to a QR code, this time he delves into some of the more technical aspects of the protocol, while also fleshing out the big picture of what it means for identity verification. Among other things, Jay explains the essential role of the “encoder” software, which extracts and formats user data from government databases, such as a DMV’s profile for a driver's license, to create a secure UR code. The conversation also dives into the importance of liveness detection for biometrics, a feature designed to ensure that only live, in-person scans are validated, adding a robust layer of security against fraud. Jay highlights how different vendors, like FaceTec, Idemia, and Paravision, each use proprietary algorithms for biometric data extraction, ensuring compatibility but protecting unique data formats. For institutions from DMVs to banks, UR codes offer a new way to streamline identity verification without compromising security, and Jay discusses potential applications, from digital driver’s licenses to banking and remote identity verification. And he underscores the fact that this new protocol isn't strictly wedded to FaceTec's own biometric liveness technology, offering opportunities for rivals to leverage the system. It could prove to be a tide that lifts all ships.

    ID Talk: Humanity Protocol's Founder on Biometrics, Blockchain, and Bridging Web3 and Real Life with Digital ID

    This week, the ID Talk podcast welcomes Terence Kwok, the founder and CEO of Humanity Protocol—a blockchain-based digital ID project that uses palm vein biometrics to verify that each of its users is indeed a real human being, and not a bot. Having only just launched this year, Humanity Protocol is a very new project. But it has gained steam quickly, having drawn 25,000 registrations within the first 24 hours of the launch of its testnet, and quickly racing to accrue hundreds of thousands of users, as Kwok reveals in this interview. He also details some of the technical aspects of how the system works, discusses what's special about building on blockchain, and outlines some of his ambitious plans for where Humanity Protocol is going next. The conversation offers a fascinating look at how some of the most cutting-edge technologies of today are converging to create a new digital identity ecosystem, with Kwok bringing a lot of candor to the conversation—including his thoughts on the "head start" that rival World (formerly "Worldcoin") has attained with its controversial iris-scanning platform, a competitive challenge that he seems to welcome.

    ID Talk: SIA Experts Tell Us Why the Industry's Vibes are So Good During This 'Interesting' Election Cycle

    This week on the ID Talk podcast, we present a fascinating conversation with two experts from the Security Industry Association: Ronald Hawkins, Director of Industry Relations, and Senior Director of Government Relations Jake Parker. Ron and Jake join the pod to discuss some of the intriguing findings from the most recent SIA Security Market Index, starting with its finding of a relatively upbeat mood among those working in the security industry despite a number of challenges and a great deal of uncertainty over another particularly contentious US election. Among other things, the conversation touches on the ongoing misconceptions about facial recognition, the business impact of inflation, the federal government's "broken" budget process, the Presidential election itself—and the remarkable ambivalence about its outcome among security industry professionals. The SIA is one of the most important industry associations representing the identity technology space, and Ron and Jake bring substantial expertise as SIA professionals to their analysis of the many important topics covered in this conversation. Don't miss out on their insights during this remarkable period of change in politics, tech, and business.

    ID Talk: How UR Codes Will Help Solve Identity Verification, with FaceTec's Jay Meier

    FaceTec's Jay Meier returns to the ID Talk podcast to delve deeper into his company's important new solution for identity verification—the UR Code. Officially announced at September's Identity Week America event in Washington, D.C., the UR Code is essentially a QR code that operates as a biometric ID. An issuing authority – such as a Department of Motor Vehicles – encodes the biometric and biographic data of an individual into the code, which can then be scanned and matched to the person's face, confirming that they are who the issuing authority believes them to be. It's a highly conceptual, well-thought-out system of identity assurance, and one that provokes a lot of follow-up questions, which Jay is here to answer. And Jay has thought carefully about this technology, and about identity assurance more broadly; besides his role as FaceTec's SVP of North American Operations, Jay holds important advisory roles with the Identity Theft Resource Center Biometrics Working Group and the Kantara Deep Fake IDV Working Group, and his expertise rings through whenever he speaks with the ID Talk team. Listen to the full conversation to get a thorough explanation of what UR Codes are, how they work, and why they're poised to solve some of the trickiest problems in identity verification.

    ID Talk: eu-LISA R&I Engineer Javier Galbally Talks Biometrics, Privacy, and the EES

    This week, the ID Talk podcast is very fortunate to welcome Javier Galbally, a Capability Building Officer in Research and Development for eu-LISA, the European Union agency overseeing some of the most important IT systems across the bloc, including border management systems like the Schengen Information System (SIS), the Visa Information System (VIS), and Eurodac, which are essential for the secure flow of information among EU member states. The European Union is one of the most complex political and state-building enterprises in history, and its modern IT infrastructure is supporting some very ambitious technological projects, including the often-delayed Entry-Exit System, which will apply biometric border control to the perimeter of the EU's Schengen zone of free travel. In his conversation with ID Talk hosts Tony Bitzionis and Alex Perala, Galbally offers both a big-picture view of his agency and an insider's perspective on what it's like working on such large-scale, complex, and sometimes politically sensitive projects. It also helps that Galbally is a bona fide biometrics expert, with direct subject matter expertise. With his skill set and position within eu-LISA, Galbally offers tremendous insights on EU infrastructure, eu-LISA itself, and one of the most important identity technology projects underway in the 21st century.
