A trending story a few weeks ago revealed that researchers from several British universities have trained a deep-learning model capable of stealing data from keyboard keystrokes with just a microphone. 

, revealed that this particular acoustic keylogging deep learning model has an accuracy of 95% when using a microphone placed next to a keyboard. Perhaps most alarmingly, the model has a 93% accuracy when recording keystrokes over the popular meeting software Zoom.

Acoustic keylogging is another example of the dangers posed by passwords and knowledge-based authentication protocols. Due to the nature of keylogging, it only takes one employee or customer to manually enter a password on a monitored device to have their security compromised. 

This article will explore the threat of acoustic keylogging in more detail and highlight why moving towards a passwordless, biometric MFA solution like Keyless makes all the difference in preventing your organization's sensitive data from falling into the wrong hands. 

 that exploits the implementation of a routine physical security measure, rather than identifiable vulnerabilities within a protected system. 

Unlike traditional keylogging attack methods (which rely on criminals installing hardware or software to steal user credentials), a successful keylogging attack doesn't require the criminal to have access to the device. They only need the sound of a user entering their credentials and access to an AI algorithm capable of decoding the keystroke data. This can make it very difficult for security teams to detect and defend against, as this audio information may already be accessible online. 

For example, a published webinar may feature one of the presenters entering their user details as part of a demo. Alternatively, keyloggers can record a user entering their details as part of a social engineering scam taking place on a video or telephone call. Once the keystroke audio is captured, it's only a matter of time before criminals can exploit the information. Therefore, the best method for neutralizing the threat of acoustic keylogging is to 

How companies can prevent acoustic keylogging attacks

Switching to biometric authentication processes eradicates acoustic keylogging attack risk instantly, as criminals would only be able to access the sound of a user taking a selfie or tapping their fingerprint on a device to attempt to gain access to a secured system. 

Moreover, a solution like Keyless provides additional layers of security within its biometric authentication protocols. For instance, it leverages the user's device as a second authentication factor, rendering attacks from external acoustic keylogging technologies useless. 

Combining biometrics and device-based authentication also delivers additional benefits from a user experience perspective. Customers/employees no longer have to remember passwords or re-register their biometrics template whenever they get a new device. 

With its Zero-Knowledge Biometrics ™ technology, Keyless enables users to enroll their biometric data in seconds before encrypting it on the user's device, sending it to a secured cloud server, and deleting the information entirely from the user's device. Once this process is complete, users can switch devices, upgrade their equipment, and recover their account access seamlessly without raising support tickets with IT helpdesk teams. 

Finally, Keyless allows organizations to step up their security measures for specific scenarios, such as actioning high-value transactions. Once a user has entered their credentials, the solution can prompt the user to input their biometrics data again to ensure that their users and sensitive data stay protected.

Preventing Acoustic Keylogging Attacks 

In the digital era, most of our daily transactions happen online as protections like Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) have made it easier for users to confirm their identities through hardware tokens, fingerprints, passwords, etc. 

However, this level of convenience comes with a significant amount of risk. For example, a Revolut customer 

, in which criminals watch a user entering their device passcode before stealing the device and breaking into their account using correct user credentials. 

Subsequently, biometric security measures like fingerprints and facial recognition are becoming overwhelmingly popular. They're considered more secure than credentials because it’s naturally very difficult to steal someone’s unique biological identifiers. Right? 

Not exactly. Biometric authentication still has a number of security vulnerabilities. Did you know criminals will disable biometric authentication systems by turning off Face ID on an unlocked device? Biometrics can also lead to usability issues. Recovering accounts using your biometrics can be difficult if your user data is not properly processed and stored. What’s more, depending on how user data is stored, organizations using biometric authentication can run into data protection-related privacy issues.

This is where Keyless can help. We've developed a brand-new biometric technology that combines the strengths of the two existing approaches, and in doing so have created the first new biometric category in over a decade.

Biometric limitations: the two existing systems

Device-native biometrics: where data is stored and processed on the user's device

Device-native, or ‘local’ biometrics is the first of the two existing biometric authentication methods. The technology behind Apple’s Face ID, device-native biometrics offer strong privacy, as a user’s data never leaves their device. 

But device-native biometrics come with usability and interoperability issues. If your iPhone goes missing, so does any biometric data stored on it. To make matters worse: users cannot hop from an iPhone to a Samsung tablet using their biometrics.

Server-side: where data is stored and processed on a centralized server

Server-side biometric systems, also called 'centralized' systems, store and process biometric data on remote cloud servers. When users enroll, their device uploads their biometric template to the cloud. When they take a selfie to authenticate, they will generate a new template, which is compared to the one stored on the cloud. This offers user convenience and cross-device authentication, which contrasts with the device-based approach.

With centralized systems, if you lose your device, your biometric information can easily be retrieved from the cloud - your identity is not lost with the phone. Centralized biometrics also allow cross-device authentication, permitting users to enroll on one device (eg. Android) and authenticate on another (eg. Apple).

But it’s not all roses. Centralized servers are a prime target for cybercriminals. If attackers can breach a server, they can gain access to a huge amount of biometric templates. There are also a host of privacy concerns depending on how the data is stored on the cloud server. For example, many centralized systems are not GDPR compliant.

At Keyless we have developed a third way. Combining the best of both worlds, we offer the privacy of local biometrics with the usability of the centralized system. Known as Zero-Knowledge BiometricsTM, or ZKB for short, it is the only biometric authentication system that does not store biometric data anywhere —neither on the device nor the cloud.

To describe how this is achieved, we must first clarify what does and does not constitute biometric data. In the context of facial recognition, biometric data includes the selfie itself, any biometric features extracted from the selfie, and anything that can link these features back to the user. On the other hand, any piece of data that cannot be linked back to the user is not biometric data.

The Zero-Knowledge Biometrics system adds the privacy offered by local biometrics to the usability and flexibility of centralized biometrics. Data leaves the device and is sent to the Keyless Cloud Service. However, unlike other centralized systems, this data is transformed into encrypted data using the Secure Multi-Party Computation (SMPC) protocol before leaving the device. This ensures it no longer qualifies as biometric data and fully preserves the privacy of the biometric data within. The Keyless Cloud Service cannot read the transformed data nor extract any biometric information from it.

Zero-Knowledge Biometrics comes with a host of benefits.

ZKB offers the usability and interoperability benefits of server-side biometrics. Any device with a front-facing camera can be used to create a biometric template. This is because we put human identifiers at the center of authentication, rather than the device, ensuring a consistent user experience across operating systems. ZKB also supports Multi-Factor Authentication for PSD2 and SCA compliance.

Because we transform data before it leaves the device, we offer the same privacy benefits as local biometrics. What’s more, our use of ZKB has meant that we are the 

world's first biometrics vendor to achieve FIDO and FIDO2 certification

. Keyless also adheres to GDPR and CCPA standards.

Keyless complies with internationally recognized quality management and information security standards, including ISO 9001 and ISO 27001.

Enhance your security with Keyless biometrics

In summary, local biometrics favor privacy and centralized biometrics favor usability and flexibility. The first is better at protecting data, whereas the second prioritizes user experience. 

Keyless leverages the strengths of both device-based and server-side biometrics to deliver a facial biometrics solution that favors privacy and usability - an industry first.

In today's interconnected world, where information is constantly being transmitted over networks, the 

research conducted by Cofense Intelligence

, man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks increased by 35% between Q1 2022 and Q1 2023.

In this blog post, we’ll explain how modern authentication solutions can help safeguard your workforce and organization from these threats by reducing the likelihood, impact, and scale of an attack. 

 that occurs when a malicious actor intercepts or alters the communication between two parties who believe they are communicating directly. In this type of attack, the attacker can eavesdrop on conversations, steal sensitive information, or inject malware into the communication stream without the knowledge of either party.

One of the most common methods of MITM attacks is known as “

”. Using this method, hackers will deploy tools to inspect packets of data with the aim of intercepting unencrypted information, such as plaintext passwords, from the victim. A skilled hacker can not only intercept communication by exploiting vulnerabilities in the network, they can also then launch further attacks on any device connected to that network.

, the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity, a MITM attack usually involves 

. The first is intercepting raw data by gaining access to the network. The second step is circumventing any encryption and authentication protocols that the target device/victim has in place. 

 that attackers can use to intercept, monitor and manipulate communication between two parties. Understanding the different types of MITM attacks is crucial for organizations to implement effective security measures to safeguard against these types of cyber attacks.

In this type of attack, the attacker impersonates a trusted IP address to gain access to the network and intercept messages. IP spoofing is typically used to launch DDoS attacks on servers. One of the biggest examples of spoofing occurred in 2017 when 

a 2.5 (network) terabyte per second DDoS attack.

This form of attack is achieved through a method known as 

– With this method, the attacker manipulates the DNS (Domain Name System) server to redirect the target's traffic to a fake website in order to steal sensitive information from the unsuspecting victim.

The attacker intercepts and decrypts SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) traffic to steal sensitive information.

The attacker uses a Wifi sniffer to eavesdrop on wireless traffic and steal sensitive information.

The attacker steals session IDs to hijack the user's session and gain access to the target's account. This type of attack is particularly insidious as the attacker can stay logged in until the session is timed out.

To protect against man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks, organizations should follow these security measures.

Implement network segmentation to divide your organization's network into separate segments. This helps isolate critical systems and sensitive data, making it more challenging for attackers to move laterally within the network and conduct MitM attacks.

Deploy strong firewall and intrusion detection systems

Utilize robust firewall solutions and intrusion detection systems (IDS) or intrusion prevention systems (IPS) to monitor network traffic for signs of malicious activity, including potential MitM attacks. These systems can help identify and block suspicious network traffic patterns.

Implement certificate authority (CA) infrastructure

Establish an internal Certificate Authority infrastructure to issue and manage SSL/TLS certificates for your organization's websites, services, and internal communication. This helps ensure the integrity of your certificates and reduces the risk of attackers issuing fraudulent certificates.

Conduct regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing

Regularly assess your organization's infrastructure for vulnerabilities and perform penetration testing to identify potential entry points for MITM attacks. This proactive approach allows you to address security weaknesses before they can be exploited.

If your organization provides Wi-Fi access to employees or guests, use secure Wi-Fi protocols such as WPA2 or WPA3. Additionally, consider implementing enterprise-grade Wi-Fi solutions that offer features like client isolation and certificate-based authentication to minimize the risk of MitM attacks on wireless networks.

Develop and enforce strict security policies for employees, including guidelines for using secure communication protocols, recognizing and reporting suspicious activities, and adhering to password best practices. Regularly train employees on security awareness and educate them about the risks of MITM attacks.

Implement advanced authentication mechanisms like 

Consider implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) or biometric authentication for accessing sensitive systems and data. This adds an extra layer of protection, making it more difficult for attackers to impersonate legitimate users.

Encrypt sensitive data at rest and in transit. Use strong encryption algorithms to protect data when stored in databases, on servers, or during transmission. Encryption helps ensure that even if intercepted, the data remains unreadable to unauthorized individuals.

Deploy security information and event management (SIEM) solutions to monitor network traffic and log events. Analyzing network traffic patterns can help identify anomalies and potential MitM attacks in real-time, enabling a swift response.

Conduct regular security awareness training

Educate employees about MITM attacks, their consequences, and how to detect and report suspicious activities. Provide ongoing security awareness training to reinforce best practices and keep employees informed about emerging threats.

Keyless provides a credential-free multi-factor authentication solution that can help reduce the impact of MITM attacks by limiting the amount of sensitive data that can be stolen during an attack. With Keyless, users are authenticated using advanced, privacy-preserving facial recognition (inherence) and device verification (possession) – eliminating the need for passwords and single-use credentials like OTPs.

This essentially makes it impossible for hackers to steal sensitive login credentials that would otherwise allow them to gain access to employee accounts and company systems. 

Furthermore, Keyless can integrate with remote working apps such as VPNs to help protect remote employees accessing company email or data from unsecured networks. Lastly, Keyless can enable organizations to authenticate users more often without hurting productivity, helping to enforce zero-trust security environments that stop attackers from moving laterally through a network. 

By implementing Keyless, alongside other critical security measures, you can significantly enhance your defenses against MITM attacks and protect sensitive information from interception and manipulation.

Safeguarding your organization from man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks

Biometric authentication has become increasingly ubiquitous across various industries and applications, providing a secure and efficient means of online identity verification. Among the biometric modalities, facial recognition technology has gained considerable attention in recent years due to its unique advantages. 

Compared to other biometric authentication modalities, facial recognition solutions can accurately verify an individual's identity while improving the authentication experience overall from a user-experience perspective. 

, the global facial recognition market was valued at $3 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach a value of $13 billion by 2028. In this article, we will explore the reasons behind the success of facial recognition technology compared to other biometric authentication modalities. 

Biometric authentication is a highly secure and reliable method of authentication based on unique biological characteristics such as fingerprints, facial features, and voice patterns. But, while biometric authentication is more secure and reliable than traditional password-based methods, it is not foolproof. That is why it's essential to choose biometric authentication systems that have been extensively tested and verified.

Why is facial recognition superior to other biometric modalities?

Facial recognition technology is more reliable and secure than other biometric authentication methods. A 

 showed that facial recognition technology is less intrusive and can accurately identify a person's identity with a high degree of accuracy, making it a popular choice for security and authentication purposes.

Other biometric authentication methods, such as fingerprint and voice recognition, encounter limitations. Fingerprint recognition is a commonly used method, but it can be bypassed by hackers with an 

. In contrast, voice recognition can be easily fooled by AI-generated voices, as demonstrated by a 

 who broke into a bank account using an AI-generated tool.

Facial recognition presents several advantages over other biometric modalities:

Liveness detection and anti-spoofing systems

Facial recognition technology has advanced to include liveness detection and anti-spoofing systems. Liveness detection systems can determine whether the face presented to the camera is real and not simply a photograph or video. Meanwhile, anti-spoofing systems can identify signs of tampering or manipulation in the image, such as masking or overlaying.

Facial recognition is viewed as a more reliable form of biometric authentication as it does not rely on physical contact with the device like fingerprint recognition. Often, fingerprint recognition fails to work when fingers are wet, dirty, or injured, making it unreliable in certain situations. However, facial recognition tends to work in nearly all situations.

Facial recognition technology is typically considered a more secure and reliable biometric authentication method than other biometric modalities, such as fingerprint and especially voice recognition. Voice recognition, in particular, has recently been under scrutiny due to the increasing sophistication of voice cloning tools which enable scammers to readily 

. In contrast, advanced facial recognition technology requires a live sample of an individual's facial image to be captured. As such, this is usually with the knowledge and consent of the user, which can help build trust and demonstrate a commitment to privacy and security.

User experience is critical for biometric authentication, especially as its use is becoming more mainstream. According to a 

, 2.6 billion consumers will use biometrics for authentication by 2023, highlighting the growth of this technology.

The process of facial recognition is intuitive, requiring little conscious effort from the user. Users present their faces to the device's camera, automatically recognizing and authenticating them. This technology saves time and effort by avoiding entering complex passwords or PINs.

Facial recognition technology boasts a low error rate even when users wear glasses or hats, according to a 

National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) study

 that revealed the best face identification algorithm has an error rate of 0.08%. The same research also disclosed that some facial recognition algorithms perform 20 times better when the subject is wearing a mask, proving the adaptability and versatility of this technology.

Why you should implement facial recognition

Facial recognition technology offers numerous benefits for biometric authentication, including improved reliability and security with liveness detection and anti-spoofing systems. Solutions like FaceID enhance the user experience and provide simplicity while privacy-preserving biometric authentication can be achieved with solutions like 

Looking to the future, we expect continued growth in biometric authentication methods, and facial recognition technology will likely become even more integrated into daily life and business operations. Ongoing innovation and development must prioritize reliability, security, and privacy to ensure that the technology remains trustworthy.

In our digitalized world, virtually every business that matters has an online presence. And yet, while businesses and technology have evolved significantly since the early days of the internet, the use of passwords has unfortunately remained an ever-present feature. 

The task of remembering multiple passwords for different accounts and recovering them can be daunting – yet despite passwords being a 

The good news is that there is a solution to the password problem, and that is: 

. By eliminating the need for credential-based authentication methods such as OTPs and passwords, organizations can fundamentally transform the user experience, making it more convenient, secure, and user-friendly. 

In this article, we’ll explore how adopting a passwordless strategy can help accelerate innovation and improve brand experience, benefiting users and organizations alike. 

What are the benefits of embracing passwordless login?

Implementing a passwordless solution can be a key differentiator in how users perceive your business. In the new digital norm, fast and simple access to online services and applications is critical to business success, client retention, and productivity. 

Passwordless solutions have many benefits, including enhanced security (by reducing the risk of attacks caused by compromised credentials and personal data) and eliminating the need for users to remember and manage multiple login credentials.

One of the most popular forms of passwordless authentication is 

, which uses unique physical characteristics, such as fingerprints or facial features, to verify a user's identity. According to a 

, over half of the users surveyed who use biometric authentication methods prefer them over any other method.

Biometric authentication offers several advantages over other forms of authentication, including increased security and convenience. Biometric data is also unique to each individual and cannot be easily replicated or stolen.

How does a passwordless strategy transform the user experience?

Passwords can easily be stolen through keyloggers, malware or a vast number of other nefarious tactics employed by hackers. As such, passwords are often viewed as the weakest link in security, with compromised credentials being the most common initial attack vector, representing 

By adopting a passwordless strategy, businesses can enhance their security and offer far more secure authentication methods – such as biometrics – which are much harder for hackers to bypass. Switching to biometrics provides peace of mind for both businesses and their customers, and goes a long way to protecting user accounts from fraud and other cyber threats.

 have shown that over 50% of users prefer to protect their accounts using a method that does not involve passwords. This is no surprise since passwords can be a source of frustration for users. One of the main advantages of using a passwordless solution is that it can reduce login friction, as users aren’t expected to remember difficult passwords. 

With passwords, users often forget their login credentials or use weak passwords that are easily compromised, leading to a frustrating user experience (UX). A poor UX can result in a number of 

 for your business, with instances of abandoned shopping carts and a 

 being the most common outcomes. In addition, a poor UX design is likely to be 

 as your customer and IT support teams gradually become inundated with requests from disgruntled customers/users. 

In a worst-case scenario, a bad UX could result in your business losing customers entirely or hiring many extra team members to manage the ever-growing list of support tickets.

By adopting a passwordless strategy, your business can vastly improve the UX, as customers will be able to log in to their accounts without the need for any complex passwords. As such, a passwordless solution makes the login & overall user experience seamless and more user-friendly. It is 

 that businesses with good UX design are more likely to face reduced operating costs, increased conversions, and perhaps most importantly, have more satisfied customers. 

 shows that 81% of satisfied customers are more likely to do business with your company again if they have a positive experience. Comparatively, as much as 95% of customers are likely to take some form of action (a bad review, discussing the experience with friends and family, etc.) after receiving a negative experience. As a result, it’s imperative that businesses put their customers front and center, and one way of doing this is by implementing a passwordless solution. 

Overall, adopting a passwordless strategy can offer a range of benefits for businesses and their customers. By improving both security and the user experience, businesses can gain a competitive edge in the market while providing their customers with a more secure and seamless experience.
