Jason Costain of the Royal Bank of Scotland and Brett Beranek of Nuance Communications share a real world example of mitigating fraud with voice biometrics in a call center.
Driven by Marriott's Starwood mega-breach, California lawmakers are pushing legislation that would expand the state's pioneering data breach notification requirements to include breaches of biometric data and all types of government identification numbers, including passports.
As more companies move away from passwords toward behavioral biometrics, they face new challenges, says Rajiv Dholakia, vice president, products at Nok Nok Labs. "There are no standards as such in this area on how the information is collected, how it's stored and how it's processed," he says.

Silicon Valley employees are increasingly calling on executives to restrict the use of facial recognition technology, mobilized in part by the U.S. government's previous policy of separating children from parents at the border. Experts say facial recognition regulations are needed - and quickly.
Numerous technology firms now offer facial biometrics recognition search tools for big data sets. But information security expert Alan Woodward warns that these big data sets must be "considered and regulated very heavily" or else we'll be "living in 1984 without knowing it."
To help prevent fraud, more organizations are moving toward the use of behavioral biometrics for authentication, says Tamaghna Basu of NeoEYED, who explains how the technology works.
99% of account takeover attacks begin with automation, and they pave the way for future ATO.
