BURLINGTON, Mass. and WASHINGTON, Sept. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Identity Week America 2025 – Aware, Inc. (NASDAQ: AWRE), a leading global biometric authentication company, today announced the launch of Intelligent Liveness, a novel liveness detection capability that delivers the speed of passive detection with the precision of active verification all while preserving a seamless user experience.
“The future of identity is about balance – balancing trust and usability, speed and security, compliance and customer experience. Intelligent Liveness is a strategic response to where the industry is going: toward low-friction, high-confidence verification that keeps pace with digital transformation,” said Ajay Amlani, CEO, Aware. “At Aware, we’re not just anticipating these shifts, we’re shaping them. This launch reflects our commitment to delivering configurable, future-ready solutions that empower our customers’ confidence to make mission-critical decisions when milliseconds matter.”
A Breakthrough in Biometric Usability & Security
Intelligent Liveness merges the convenience of passive approaches with the accuracy of active verification, without burdening the user with additional actions or complexity. By doing so, it transforms how organizations ensure “proof-of-personhood” with a friction-free user experience by cutting the error rate and reducing false negatives by 50%, as well as increasing speed of capture from 3 to 4 seconds to under one second.
With its machine learning-trained models and defense-in-depth design, Intelligent Liveness compresses R&D timelines from 9-12 months down to as little as three weeks, enabling responsive adaptation to emerging spoofing techniques. Intelligent Liveness directly addresses critical organizational needs, including:
- Protecting revenue by blocking sophisticated fraud before losses occur
- Reducing fraud with real-time, intelligent spoof detection
- Supporting compliance efforts with evolving industry and regulatory standards
- Increasing efficiency by streamlining identity verification and slashing onboarding time
- Supporting ongoing updates to address evolving threats
This solution preserves the frictionless and highly secure user experiences that are vital across sectors such as finance, healthcare, government, travel, and more.
“Intelligent Liveness represents a paradigm shift in biometric security. It redefines how we approach identity verification, delivering a breakthrough that is both more secure and more seamless than anything before it,” said Dr. Mohamed Lazzouni, CTO of Aware. “By unifying the best of passive and active liveness detection through advanced machine learning, we’ve created a solution that’s designed to be retrained quickly in response to new spoofing techniques while staying invisible to the user.”
