Detecting face liveness usecases:
- By itself: Guard against bots using the platform as it requires real user input
- Can be coupled with Compare Faces by storing previous liveliness scan (account creation) to ensure the same user is requesting account help (account recovery)
Themeing Issues in FaceRekognition:
- Looking through customization docs the sliding color screen is not optional and is used as part of the verification - It isn't the best experience.
- However the start view screen is optionable and we can add our own alongside theming for the facial scan screen.
- Would like the oval screen be more customizable - remove strange design choices such as the recording button on top left corner.
CompareFaces usecases:
- Needs a base profile to compare with for persona for future checks
- ID verification needs secondary layer to be verified as authentic before comparing faces with the aws (AWS doesn't include ID verification like persona)
- Docs state that compare faces would require a secondary human authentication to avoid false negatives - however we can set a similarity thresholds for auto-rejections and require false-negative users to file a support ticket
The example shown below is for Detecting Face Liveness does not have any theming and does not include Compare Faces:
