IDEMIA’s 1:N face biometric algorithm has again taken the number one spot on the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Face Recognition Vendor Test (FRVT).
The IDEMIA’s 1:N face biometric algorithm
According to an announcement by Idemia National Security Solutions (NSS), a business unit of Idemia, the test results showed a correct identification accuracy of 99.5 percent at a false positive identification rate of 0.1 percent when searching a dataset of 1.6 million visa border images.
Per the announcement, IDEMIA has maintained the number one spot in the NIST FRVT ranking since March, and this time around, its facial recognition technology was tested against over 75 systems and 281 entries.
NIST said at the end of the test that Idemia’s algorithm had no “detectable biases” — a characteristic which the company says strengthens its sustained position as a verified leader in biometrics and fair facial recognition technology.
Precise and reliable performance
Idemia National Security Solutions CEO Andrew Boyd said that the NIST test results this year reflect the increasing foothold of their solution in the facial recognition technology market.
“The NIST testing and rankings thus far in 2021 continue to highlight the stronghold Idemia has as a leader in facial recognition technology. Our algorithms consistently deliver accurately and reliably, supporting our government partners and showcasing not only the innovative solutions being brought forth by IDEMIA, but our overall commitment to excellence in perfecting this critical technology,” said Boyd.
IDEMIA’s 1:N face biometric algorithm is deployed on various devices and systems, including VisionPass, the ultimate facial recognition access control device.

Biometrics allows the identification and authentication of a person, by recognizing characteristics that are specific to him, and immutable. Here is more information about it.
What are the means of identification?
One and the same person can be recognized in different ways, thanks to unique elements. The main ones are as follows:
Fingerprints: Fingerprint readers, the effectiveness of which is well established, are widely used today and in many fields.
The iris: the analysis of the iris is complex because it requires high performance cameras, good lighting and optimal conditions.
The veins: the particular mapping of the veins also makes it possible to confirm the identity of a person.
The face: the size of the nose, the distance between the eyes, and many other details, make each face unique and allow precise recognition.
Biometrics at the service of professionals
A biometric reader can authorize logical access, such as access to confidential data, connection to a session, etc. This makes it possible to limit the actions of each employee and/or to protect sensitive data.
It is also possible to use a reader for physical access, in order to enter the premises of a company, for example.
The advantages of this authentication method
The use of biometric readers represents a definite advance for a company.
First of all, it gives the possibility of considerably strengthening the security. Unlike a password or a badge, the risk of identity theft is almost non-existent. It is thus possible to have, among other things, a precise and sure record of the entries and exits of personnel.
In the same way, it makes it possible to identify oneself, at any time, without risk of forgetting or losing their means of authentication.
Finally, it’s a huge time saver. Indeed, a biometric reader is able to analyze a huge database and validate an access in less than a second.

Recently, IDEMIA indicated that it has entered into a global partnership with Bosch Building Technologies, a world leader in the security market. This partnership will exploit the rapidly expanding biometric access control market. According to some specialists, this market, already estimated at $ 1 billion, should grow twice as fast as for other access control markets and reach $ 1.4 billion in 2024.
How to explain such a boom?
Many companies have realized the importance of security in their premises. Since identification badges can be easily falsified, duplicated or stolen, companies are increasingly deciding to use more secure technologies: this is the case with biometrics. Indeed, it uses personal, physiological and tamper-proof characteristics, and increasingly attracts companies for the security of their professional premises.
Bosch Building Technologies’ solution
Bosch Building Technologies’ software solution manages several security subsystems: access control, video surveillance, fire alarms, sound systems, intrusion systems, etc. It has been tested by more than 3000 installations, which represents 10 million detectors worldwide.
Bosch Building Technologies called on IDEMIA to integrate a biometric dimension into its BIS (intrusion system) system. The world leader has therefore opted for two types of readers: the MorphoWave Compact, the only terminal that can scan and identify 4 fingerprints in less than a second by a simple movement of the hand, and the VisionPass, whose technology is based on the facial recognition (2D, 3D and infrared cameras). Robust and powerful, MorphoWave and VisionPass are contactless and work even when wearing a sanitary mask. In addition to making the passage smoother and making the places safer, these readers are therefore perfectly suited to the health rules currently in place for the fight against Covid-19.

The National Information Systems Security Agency offers security certification, which certifies the security of a product. To deliver this certification, ANSSI relies on a compliance analysis and penetration tests carried out by a third-party assessor. It takes into account technological developments and user security needs.
For buyers, ANSSI certification helps ensure the good quality and safety of products. For sellers, this is a very powerful selling point in the cybersecurity market.
The two types of ANSSI certifications
There are two types of ANSSI certifications:
Common Criteria certification (CC) : globally recognized, this certification takes into account the design characteristics, the development process and resistance to a given level of attack. The duration of the certification process varies between 6 and 18 months.
First Level Security Certification (CSPN) : an alternative to CC assessments, it assesses the resistance of a product to more moderate attacks. It is less exhaustive, and focuses on analyzing the product by testing under time and load constraints.
We are very proud to distribute IDEMIA brand products, which are now certified by the National Agency for Information Systems Security.

Los Angeles International Airport, one of the busiest in the world, recently incorporated IDEMIA technology into its new West Gates departure gates. It’s a turnkey security solution for passengers, airlines and airports, and it’s based on facial recognition.
IDEMIA equips Los Angeles airport with facial recognition
Facial recognition technology installed at Los Angeles Airport complies with the security measures defined by the US Congress, but also allows passengers to board faster, more efficiently and without contact. Many other airports have called on IDEMIA’s know-how, demonstrating its long-standing commitment to secure and efficient passenger traffic solutions. This system was rated number 1 in the latest Face Recognition Vendor Test (FRVT) from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
A collaboration with LAWA
Idemia is proud to work with LAWA, the United States Customs and Border Protection, and more than 50 airlines to keep passengers safe. Large-scale solutions have been deployed to the current crisis at Los Angeles Airport and are significantly improving the passenger experience.
Of course, US nationals who do not wish to display their facial images can still be checked in by an airline agent.
