Multifactor Biometric Authentication via Multimedia Session
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current authentication methods lack robustness in verifying user identity across various online operations, as they often rely on single-factor authentication, which can be vulnerable to fraud and unauthorized access.
Innovation Solution
A multifactor authentication system that establishes multimedia sessions to combine facial and voice biometric authentication, using a device capable of capturing and analyzing video and audio data to generate a multifactor authentication result, thereby enhancing security through aggregated biometric scores.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If single-factor authentication is used, then the authentication process is simple and quick, but the security level is low and vulnerable to fraud
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple biometric authentication factors (facial recognition, voice recognition, and other biometric data) into a unified authentication system. The multifactor authentication component aggregates results from multiple biometric analyses to determine user identity, thereby increasing security while maintaining a coordinated authentication process.
Solution Approach 2:
The authentication system is designed to support multiple biometric authentication methods simultaneously (facial, voice, and other biometric data). The system can adaptively select and combine different biometric factors based on the authentication scenario, providing multi-functional verification capabilities within a single authentication framework.
2Reliability
If single-factor authentication is used, then the system is easy to operate, but it does not effectively utilize multimedia sessions for comprehensive verification
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates facial recognition, voice recognition, and other biometric data extraction within a single multimedia session framework. The system captures and processes multiple types of biometric information simultaneously during one authentication interaction, achieving comprehensive verification without requiring separate authentication sessions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically performs multiple biometric analyses (facial, voice, and other biometric data) without requiring explicit user actions for each type of verification. The multimedia session management component and biometric capture component work automatically to collect and analyze various biometric factors during the authentication process.
3Measurement precision
If multiple biometric authentication operations are performed, then the security and accuracy are improved, but the processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs biometric data extraction and preliminary analysis during the multimedia session establishment phase. The biometric capture component extracts facial, voice, and other biometric data as the multimedia session is being set up, rather than processing all data after the session is complete, thereby reducing overall processing time.
Solution Approach 2:
The authentication system continuously processes multiple biometric factors in parallel during the multimedia session. Rather than sequentially analyzing each biometric type, the system performs facial recognition, voice recognition, and other biometric analyses simultaneously and continuously, improving processing efficiency while maintaining high authentication accuracy.
Data Source
AI summary
A device may receive a request to authenticate a user, automatically establish a multimedia session with the user in response to receiving the request, and capture a group of biometric identifiers for the user from the multimedia session. The device may further perform a group of biometric authentication operations using the analyzed or captured biometric identifiers to obtain a group of authentication scores, determine whether the user is properly authenticated based on the group of authentication scores, and transmit a message representing the determination of whether the user is properly authenticated.
