Passive Liveness Detection

Prevents presentation attacks with advanced liveness detection, ensuring that a real is in front of the camera. Delivers a fast and natural user experience, requiring only a single-shot selfie instead of complex actions like recording head movements.
Presence detection continuous authentication screen lock

Presence Detection & Continuous Authentication

Monitors user presence and identity throughout sessions to protect ongoing access. Locks devices when users step away and re-authenticates them automatically upon return. No need for specialized hardware - works with standard webcams.

Alternative & Supplemental Factors

For users who opt out of facial recognition, the platform supports alternative authentication methods such as badge, NFC, QR code, or PIN​. Facial Authentication can also be combined with these other factors for flexible multi-factor authentication (MFA) configurations.

Privacy, Security & Compliance

OLOID offers a Privacy-Centric design where there is no image retention. Facial images are not stored; instead, facial landmarks are converted into a secure numerical template ("data blob") that is meaningless without context and cannot be reverse-engineered​​. Compliant with GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, and BIPA, with advanced consent capture for custom legal integration. Ideal for industries needing strict privacy compliance, like healthcare, manufacturing, and finance.
  • Opt-In Consent Model: Users are given a choice to opt-in before enrollment. The consent system can present re-consent forms as regulations evolve​.
  • Anonymized Data: Facial data does not contain personally identifiable information (PII) and is securely tied to badge or employee IDs​.
  • Data De-identification: Biometric data stored as encrypted facial vectors in the Face Vault, with optional de-identification (D-ID) for enhanced privacy​.
  • End-to-End Encryption: Facial data is securely encrypted at rest and in transit using AWS KMS with AES-256, meeting global data protection standards.
  • Data Auto-Deletion: Facial templates and related metadata are auto-deleted when users are removed from HR or SSO systems, reducing risks of data retention​.

OLOID face authentication works with standard webcams or built-in cameras on laptops, tablets, kiosks, and other shared devices. No specialized or proprietary hardware is required, making it easy to deploy across existing enterprise and frontline environments.

How does OLOID protect against spoofing and unauthorized access?

blue angle icon
OLOID uses passive liveness detection to verify that a real, present individual is in front of the camera, helping prevent presentation attacks using photos or replayed videos. After login, continuous presence detection can monitor whether the authenticated user remains at the device, automatically locking or ending the session if the user steps away.

Does face authentication work in different lighting and operational conditions?

Yes. OLOID’s facial authentication technology is designed to operate reliably across a range of environments, including indoor clinical spaces, retail floors, warehouses, and industrial settings with varying lighting conditions.

How is facial biometric data stored and protected?

blue angle icon
OLOID does not store facial images. Instead, facial features are converted into encrypted, de-identified biometric templates stored in the Face Vault. No personally identifiable image data is retained. Biometric data is encrypted in transit and at rest and is automatically deleted when users are removed from connected HR or identity systems.

Can face authentication support MFA and compliance requirements?

blue angle icon
Yes. Face authentication can be used as a standalone factor or combined with badges, NFC, QR codes, or PINs to support multi-factor authentication policies. OLOID’s Face Vault and biometric workflows align with global privacy and security standards, including iBeta Level 5 biometric certification, GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA, helping organizations meet regulatory and compliance requirements.
