A World With No Data Breaches: Is It Even Possible?

ANONYBIT GENIE - ACCOUNT RECOVERY MODULE
The account recovery process is ripe for attackers. Don’t be a victim.
In an interconnected digital world, securing your online presence is paramount. While account recovery processes are designed to help users regain access to their accounts, they also expose the enterprise to the greatest risk. Through phishing, social engineering and the wide availability of stolen personal data on the dark web, fraudsters know how to get around existing controls. The Anonybit Genie secures the weakest link, preventing account takeover attacks at the help desk and in chat channels. Understanding and mitigating fraud risks during account recovery is crucial for ensuring online security and a closed circle of identity.

"As biometrics become more and more mainstream for passwordless authentication, how we protect and manage them will become critical. Anonybit has developed an elegant solution that complements Passkeys and addresses many other use cases that enterprises have around identity management.”
How the account recovery module works
Instead of a clunky account recovery process that requires email, phone numbers, easy-to-guess security questions and one-time codes, ask the person to take a selfie and within a few seconds know who is on the other end. Strong authentication. Less fraud. Better user experience and overall operational cost savings. All built with the Anonybit privacy-by-design backend.
Send the user a magic link
User takes a selfie and submits to Anonybit
Anonybit compares the selfie against the decentralized record and returns a matching score in milliseconds
If applicable and there is a match, retrieve a linked asset (i.e., PassKey or backup passphrase)
If applicable and there is a match, send an OTP or submit call to allow access to application
If applicable, send the match response to a help desk agent
