In this Lunch Talk, Chris will address the critical need for biometric system resilience against sophisticated injection attacks, a growing threat in authentication. This presentation will cover the evolving landscape of these attacks, current testing methodologies, and new standards for assessing system resilience. Detecting injection attacks is vital for preventing unauthorized access, mitigating AI-based spoofing (deepfakes), ensuring compliance, and reducing fraud across sectors like remote IDV, KYC, and national security. The session will emphasize both offensive and defensive applications of machine learning, AI, and deepfake detection in tackling these emerging threats.
