authID Inc.

authID, a biometric authentication provider, announced it has been selected by a global leader in industrial automation to secure its Microsoft Entra ID and ServiceNow environments, protecting tens of thousands of employees and contractors. The customer, whose identity was not disclosed, chose authID's Proof identity verification and Verified + PrivacyKey biometric authentication solutions after a proof of concept covering password reset, authentication, and biometric enrollment. authID's platform offers fraud and deepfake detection, support for 16,000 document types across more than 240 countries, and a privacy design that never stores biometric templates, with a false non-match rate of about 0.3% and a false match rate of 1 in 1 billion. The selection was also influenced by pre-built integrations, no professional-services costs during the proof of concept, and authID's quantum-resistant architecture upgrade. According to IBM X-Force, manufacturing has been the most targeted industry for cyber attacks for five consecutive years, accounting for over a quarter of global attacks.
