Biometric 2FA
Replace SMS codes with a face check no one can phish. A face-based second factor for logins and sensitive actions.
What's included
Everything you need for biometric 2fa
Face check as second factor
Require a live face match in addition to password for sensitive logins or actions.
Liveness check
Block spoofing with printed photos, screen replays, or recorded video.
Fallback methods
Offer a secondary path (e.g. document re-verification) if biometric check fails.
Per-session risk triggers
Require biometric 2FA only when risk signals warrant it, keeping low-risk sessions frictionless.
No SIM-swap exposure
Removes reliance on SMS OTP, which is vulnerable to SIM-swap attacks.
Audit log
Every 2FA event and outcome is logged for security review.
How it works
A factor that can't be phished or swapped
SMS-based 2FA can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks, and OTP codes can be phished. A biometric factor ties authentication to the user's live physical presence instead.
Why Hypersign
More than biometric 2fa
- Uses the same verified biometric profile established during onboarding KYC
- No SMS/OTP infrastructure to maintain or secure against SIM-swap fraud
- Encrypted identity vault stores biometric templates with strict access control
- Risk-based triggers keep it a step-up factor, not friction on every login

7 Biometric Verification & Liveness Detection Providers, Compared (2026)
We compared seven biometric verification and liveness detection providers on liveness type, PAD/iBeta certification, and real per-check pricing, including the four that won't publish a rate card.
Zero-Knowledge Biometric Verification, Explained
Zero-knowledge proofs let a verifier confirm a face matches an ID, or that a liveness check passed, without ever holding the raw biometric data. Here's how the mechanism actually works, what it prevents, and how close the identity industry is to shipping it in production KYC.
