RE: Virtual Biometrics Created from Facebook Photos Fool Security

in #security10 years ago

I think over time AI can know the person better than the person knows themselves. I'm thinking full persona recognition is going to be possible, and it will include face, fingerprint, iris, and whatever else a person is, but also how they are.

So typically it's about what someone is, what someone knows, what someone has, but in the future we will be able to include how someone is or how they act. So I do think security will improve in this area dramatically.

Sort:  

I have been following some AI companies here in the Valley and "behavioral identification" is still at its very beginnings.

  • First, it has lots of false positives (keystroke dynamics are a good example)
  • Second, you have to go very fast: being able to identify the user the quickest possible (imagine your keystrokes Identifier needs 300 characters, or 20sec of typing... a hacker would probably have time to disable it).

Nevertheless, there are applications where we can have an immediate application: Cars for instance (see WHO drives, and prevent the car from being stolen... at least taken far away).

I still remain "bullish" on the behavioral identification in the future . AI techniques are the new trending thing, and are helped by massive computational power (Nvidia DGX-1).

Btw, speaking about robots: did you try the X.ai assistant ?
