(Episode Transcription)This week, I’m joined by Dave Burnett, VP of Strategy at ZeroBiometrics, to discuss his company’s cutting edge approach to using one’s face to biometrically-authenticate to systems w/o storing personal data, preventing breaches. We’ll discuss current approaches to deploying biometric authentication, unpack surrounding privacy & security challenges, and explore his company’s tech & why it may enable the biometrics industry to leapfrog over current tech hurdles as there’s now a privacy-preserving method to biometric authentication .—------Thank you to our sponsor, Privado, the developer friendly privacy platform.—------Rather than iterate on older technology, ZeroBiometrics approached its biometric authentication tech using a clean-sheet design. As a result, they created tech that captures no personal data, not even a biometric. Thus, it doesn't know what someone looks like and doesn’t save personal data to authenticate. In our conversation, Dave pulls back the curtain this magical-sounding tech and shares compelling examples of how ZeroFace enables privacy-preserving biometric identification, verification, authentication, and account recovery. The expansion of biometrics is unstoppable at this point. Security risks and privacy issues are too significant, and global legislation can't keep up. Dave illustrates why we can't keep working within the old biometric paradigm if we want to protect our identities and personal data and explains how his team works to bridge the gap between technologists and end-users.Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, or on your favorite podcast platform.Topics Covered:Key challenges as we evolve from mobile biometrics to other use cases.Technical & policy differences that affect privacy.How industry leaders like Apple have approached facial & fingerprint biometrics.How ZeroFace authenticates you w/o knowing what you look likeAddressing privacy usability challenges in the crypto space.ZeroBiometrics’s impressive metrics for false acceptance (FAR) & rejection rates (FRR)How using a ZeroFace's QR code can radically change the way we travel, ship goods & authenticate to our devicesGuest Info:Follow David on LinkedInLearn about ZeroBiometricsFollow Send a text Privado.aiPrivacy assurance at the speed of product development.
