Behavioral Biometrics – Human behavior as an extra layer of security<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

BehavioSec\u2019s behavioral biometric technology can help you meet the security challenges of an always-connected world.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We believe strong security shouldn\u2019t get in the way of great user experiences, so we created an invisible layer of security that works with existing systems and allows the user to be part of the security solution.
BehavioSec uses the way your customers type, swipe, and hold their devices, and enables them to authenticate themselves through their own behavior patterns, without them needing to perform any extra security steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We protect billions of transactions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our technology is mature, reliable, and backed by the best in the industry. The BehavioSec team started working on this pioneering technology in Lule\u00e5, Sweden, in 2006. Since then, we\u2019ve protected billions of transactions and we\u2019ve been endorsed by DARPA and Google for our capability to deliver applications that can detect fraudulent behavior before any damage is done.<\/p>\n\n\n

Whenever a person\u2019s credentials are entered into the system, BehavioSec analyzes the accompanying behavior and produces a score to determine how closely that behavior matches the stored profile. The score is then fed into your risk engine, and the system includes it in its risk assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the behavior doesn\u2019t match the profile, you can take threat-appropriate measures. This can include collecting further data, asking a security question, or asking for a one-time
token.<\/p>\n\n\n

BehavioSec\u2019s behavioral biometric algorithms are powerful enough to build a reliable profile that keeps good users in and only puts obstacles in the way when it detects suspicious behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n

It\u2019s safer for your customers<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because individuals\u2019 behaviors display variation, a user\u2019s profile is updated every time they aural behavior to secure their data. This also means that if the database is breached, the information is highly unlikely to be of any use to an attacker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the risk score is based on statistical variances, it isn\u2019t possible to replay, reuse, mimic, or even identify an individual; the profile is a description of variances. We don\u2019t store personally identifiable information<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re not profiling or tracking your customers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our technology is not about finding an individual, but more about identifying consistency in user behavior. It\u2019s not asking whether it\u2019s a particular person, but whether it\u2019s the right person. Behavioral biometrics is not associated with the same fears as some physical biometrics, as the technology does not distinguish between characteristics, such as race or gender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What about privacy risks?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There is no risk from using behavioral biometrics as an added security layer to protect your customers and your company. Because the risk score is based on statistical variances, it isn\u2019t possible to replay, reuse, mimic, or even identify an individual; the profile is a description of variances. We also don\u2019t store personally identifiable information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We commissioned international legal practice Osborne Clarke to carry out research in order to address some of these concerns. They used Germany\u2019s privacy and data compliance regulations as a benchmark because German data protection laws are among the most stringent in the world. Analysts at Goode Intelligence then used this research to publish a paper in more accessible language. You can ask us for a copy if you\u2019d like to read more about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, yes, it still works even if you break your arm<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We hope your users never get injured! But what we know you\u2019re really asking is, \u201cCan I trust behavioral biometrics to figure out that this is the same user, even if their natural actions change in some dramatic way?\u201d And the answer is, yes, it knows who you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BehavioSec adapts to the changes in a user\u2019s behavior over time. Since it looks at multiple aspects of how a user behaves, it allows for variances without reducing the accuracy. In extreme circumstances, an administrator can disable the affected profile, lower the sensitivity of the software, or add the user to a white list.
