Aware has received FIDO Alliance Certification for Face Verification, gaining recognition for its identity verification tech including liveness detection and facial matching capabilities.

The certification affirms that Aware’s identity verification platform meets the FIDO Alliance’s standards for biometric performance, security and fairness. Testing was conducted by BixeLab — which recently revealed a new contract, CTO and facility — is one of only three labs globally accredited to evaluate biometric systems under the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) NVLAP program.

“FIDO’s Face Verification Certification represents a powerful step toward a passwordless future built on trust, accuracy, and strong security,” said Ajay Amlani, CEO of Aware, Inc. “Earning this certification demonstrates not only our technological excellence but our deep commitment to transparency and innovation in biometrics.”
