AI FOR BIOMETRIC AND IDENTITY VERIFICATION

The Challenge of Secure Identity in Contested Environments

Deploy secure, on-the-move biometric identification with liveness detection and anti-spoofing for operational integrity.

Legacy biometric systems fail under operational stress, creating critical vulnerabilities in access control and force protection. Inference Systems delivers hardened AI that verifies identity in real-world contested conditions with 99.9% accuracy and sub-second latency on ruggedized edge hardware.

  • Liveness Detection & Anti-Spoofing: Defeat presentation attacks using multi-modal sensor fusion and deep learning models trained on adversarial data.
  • On-the-Move Identification: Enable continuous face, gait, and iris recognition from moving platforms and personnel in variable lighting and occlusion.
  • Secure Edge Deployment: Process biometrics locally on NVIDIA Jetson or Intel Movidius hardware within air-gapped or Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), preventing data exfiltration.
  • Integration with C2 Systems: Seamlessly feed verified identity data into existing command and control platforms for real-time situational awareness and audit trails.

Our models are trained and validated against the NIST FRVT benchmarks and MITRE ATLAS adversarial frameworks, ensuring resilience against novel attack vectors in the field.

MILITARY-GRADE SECURITY

Our Secure Development and Deployment Methodology

We engineer biometric AI systems with security and reliability as the foundational layer. Our methodology is built on defense-grade principles, ensuring your identity verification platform is robust against spoofing, resilient in contested environments, and trusted for mission-critical operations.

01

Secure Development Lifecycle (SDL)

Every model and pipeline is developed under a certified Secure Development Lifecycle, integrating threat modeling, static/dynamic code analysis, and peer review from initial architecture through to deployment. This proactive approach eliminates vulnerabilities before they reach production.

Hardened Model Training & Testing

We train biometric models (face, gait, iris) on diverse, adversarial datasets and rigorously test against the latest spoofing techniques, including 3D masks and deepfakes. Our red teaming protocols, aligned with frameworks like MITRE ATLAS, ensure models are resilient to evasion and data poisoning attacks.

Confidential Computing Deployment

Sensitive biometric data is processed within hardware-based Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) like Intel SGX or AMD SEV. This ensures data remains encrypted in memory during inference, providing a secure enclave that protects against host-level attacks and insider threats.

Frequently Asked Questions on Biometric AI for Defense

Get specific answers on timelines, security, and integration for deploying mission-critical biometric AI systems.

For a standard on-premise or secure cloud deployment with liveness detection and anti-spoofing, the typical timeline is 4-8 weeks. This includes 1-2 weeks for environment setup and data pipeline integration, 2-4 weeks for model fine-tuning and validation on your operational data, and 1-2 weeks for hardening and final acceptance testing. Complex, multi-modal systems (e.g., combining face, gait, and iris) or those requiring ruggedized edge deployment may extend to 10-12 weeks. We provide a fixed-scope project plan after the initial technical assessment.
