Digital onboarding and KYC
Verify identity during registration, account opening, financial product applications, platform enrollment, or digital profile creation.
Identity Verification3D Facial Biometrics
Biometric Identity Verification
Verify real users in seconds with 3D facial biometrics, liveness detection, and anti-spoofing controls designed to protect access, digital onboarding, and critical transactions.
Stronger security, less friction, and verification from any compatible camera-enabled device.
Identity Fraud Demands Stronger Controls
Many companies still verify identity with passwords, security questions, one-time codes, static ID data, or simple camera gestures. These methods may not be enough against impersonation attacks, social engineering, deepfakes, videos, photos, screens, masks, or tools designed to bypass digital security controls.
When identity is not properly verified, the impact goes beyond a poor user experience. It can lead to financial loss, unauthorized access, transaction fraud, operational rework, regulatory exposure, and loss of trust in digital channels.
Unicus strengthens this critical point: confirming that the person is real, present, and aligned with the identity attempting to access, register, or authorize an operation.
Unicus, Biometric Identity for Trusted Transactions
Unicus is a biometric identity verification ecosystem that validates people remotely, quickly, and securely through 3D facial biometrics and liveness detection.
The solution is designed to integrate into digital flows where user trust is critical: registration, authentication, account recovery, transaction authorization, access to sensitive information, and high-risk validations.
Unlike methods based only on data that can be stolen or shared, 3D facial biometrics validate unique physical traits and real-presence signals.
This helps reduce reliance on passwords, lower operational friction, and strengthen security across digital and in-person channels.
Unicus can integrate with web apps, mobile apps, kiosks, service points, transactional platforms, and existing enterprise systems. It can also be paired with document validation and business rules.
Where you can use Unicus
Unicus can be applied anywhere a company needs greater confidence about who is behind a transaction, request, or access attempt.
Transaction authorization
Add a security layer for payments, transfers, purchases, disbursements, sensitive data changes, and high-value operations.
Service channels, kiosks, and payment points
Integrate biometric verification into in-person or self-service experiences before critical operations are performed.
Education and remote assessment
Support authentication for exams, certifications, virtual classes, or academic validations where participant identity must be confirmed.
Employee access to sensitive information
Strengthen internal authentication when employees, vendors, or third parties access restricted systems, data, or workflows.
High-risk digital platforms
Apply biometric verification in neobanks, digital lending, reservations, ride-hailing, digital health, insurance, marketplaces, entertainment, government, and other environments where identity, security, and experience must align.
Passwordless access
Authenticate users with facial biometrics, reducing dependence on passwords, security questions, and vulnerable account recovery flows.
Your users’ transactions are certified
Unicus uses FaceTec’s 3D facial biometrics technology, our technology partner for identity verification. This technology holds Level 1 and Level 2 certification under the ISO/IEC 30107-3 Presentation Attack Detection standard, awarded by iBeta, an independent accredited testing laboratory. The certification evaluates the system’s ability to detect impersonation attempts using photos, videos, screens, masks, and other digital fraud techniques.
Technical note: NIST accredits testing laboratories through its NVLAP program; this certification applies to the technology tested by iBeta and does not constitute a direct NIST certification of the product.
How Unicus verifies identity
1. Guided face capture
The user starts a simple flow from a compatible camera-enabled device. The experience should be fast, clear, and designed to minimize friction.
2. Liveness detection
The solution analyzes real-presence signals to help detect impersonation attempts using photos, videos, screens, masks, camera injection, or artificially generated content.
3. 3D face map creation
During validation, the technology analyzes multiple frames and depth signals to create a three-dimensional biometric representation that is more robust than a 2D selfie.
4. Matching and decisioning
The system compares biometric information against the reference defined by the client’s flow, such as a prior enrollment, document validation, or an already registered identity.
5. Business process integration
The result can connect to approval rules, risk monitoring, traceability, audit, onboarding, login, transaction authorization, or service workflows.
Why Choose 3D Facial Biometrics?
2D biometrics can be useful for low-risk scenarios, but when fraud represents a real business risk, 3D validation provides a stronger layer of security because it analyzes depth, texture, liveness signals, and capture behavior.
Liveness detection
2D Biometrics
Often depends on simple gestures such as blinking, smiling, turning the head, or looking at specific points.
3D Facial Biometrics
Analyzes three-dimensional signals, depth, texture, and other indicators of real presence.
Depth detection
2D Biometrics
Limited, because it mainly works with flat images.
3D Facial Biometrics
More robust, because it validates the behavior and three-dimensional structure of the face.
Resistance to impersonation
2D Biometrics
More exposed to photos, videos, screens, and digital manipulation.
3D Facial Biometrics
Greater ability to detect spoofing attempts, deepfakes, masks, and other advanced attacks, depending on configuration.
Trust in critical operations
2D Biometrics
Suitable for simple or low-risk scenarios.
3D Facial Biometrics
Recommended for onboarding, transactions, access to sensitive information, and high-assurance processes.
Certifications and technical validation
2D Biometrics
Depends on the provider and the scope of testing performed.
3D Facial Biometrics
Can be supported by technologies tested by accredited laboratories.
