How to Implement Anonybit Biometric Authentication With No Integration Required

Organizations are increasingly looking to adopt biometric authentication to enhance security, streamline user experiences, and combat fraud, but can get stymied by various integration challenges. Anonybit addresses this challenge with an out-of-band implementation approach that enables businesses to seamlessly adopt biometric authentication without slowing down deployment time or straining limited resources.

Here’s how this process works and why it could be the perfect solution for your organization.

The Out-of-Band Approach: A Game Changer for Biometric Authentication

Traditional biometric authentication deployments often require specialized software integration. This can involve API adjustments, SDK installations, or significant customization to fit within your organization’s existing workflows. While these approaches are effective, they demand time, resources, and technical expertise that may not be feasible due to resource constraints and/or limitations of existing systems. Anonybit’s out-of-band solution sidesteps these challenges, enabling businesses to leverage privacy-enhancing biometrics with no integration required.

How It Works

1. Invoke the Anonybit Widget: The process starts when your system calls the Anonybit widget, which can be accessed through a browser or app interface. Alternatively, the widget can be invoked via an email, SMS, or QR code, offering flexible options to suit various workflows and user scenarios.  
2. User Is Prompted to Capture a Biometric: The widget guides the user to capture their biometric—such as a fingerprint, face, or voice. This step ensures a smooth and user-friendly experience while collecting high-quality biometric data.  
3. Decentralized Storage and Processing: Once the biometric is captured, Anonybit’s decentralized infrastructure takes over. The data is securely fragmented and distributed across a multi-party environment, eliminating any single point of compromise. Processing occurs entirely within this decentralized environment, ensuring both privacy and security.  
4. Authentication Response Sent: After processing, the authentication result (e.g., verified or denied) is sent back to your system. Alternatively, the result can be sent directly to the user, accompanied by a prompt for the next steps, such as completing a transaction or retrying authentication.  

This approach delivers secure, flexible, and user-friendly biometric authentication while maintaining operaional efficiency.  

Why Choose the Out-of-Band Approach for Biometric Authentication

• Zero Disruption to Current Operations: By eliminating the need for integration, the out-of-band approach allows organizations to maintain their existing infrastructure while enhancing their security measures.  
• Speed to Market: Deploy privacy-preserving biometric authentication in a fraction of the time compared to traditional integration methods, enabling rapid adoption and immediate benefits.  
• Cost Efficiency: With no integration work required, you save on development, deployment, and training costs and maximize ROI.  
• Enhanced Security and Privacy: The out-of-band method leverages Anonybit’s decentralized architecture, ensuring biometric data is never stored in its entirety in one place. This approach minimizes the risk of breaches and enhances compliance with global privacy regulations.  

Use Cases for Out-of-Band Implementation

Anonybit’s out-of-band approach is versatile, making it an excellent solution for various high-security and high-value use cases. By seamlessly integrating into your workflows without disrupting existing systems, it’s particularly effective for scenarios where biometric authentication adds a crucial layer of security and convenience.

• Step-Up Authentication: Add a layer of biometric verification for sensitive transactions or activities, such as accessing high-value accounts or making significant changes to user profiles.
• Call Center Authentication: Enhance customer identity verification by enabling voice or face biometrics to confirm identities during call center interactions, reducing fraud and improving user experience.
• Account Recovery: Simplify the account recovery process with biometrics, providing users with a fast, secure way to regain access to their accounts without relying on weak methods like knowledge-based authentication.
• Wire Verification: Prevent unauthorized transfers by requiring biometric authentication before approving high-value wire transactions, ensuring the right person authorizes the action.
• Payments: Secure payment processes by integrating biometric authentication for transaction approvals, reducing fraud while maintaining a frictionless user experience.
