Biometric Update Publishes 2025 Deepfake Detection Market Report; Keyless Featured as Standout Vendor

7 August 2025

London, August 7, 2025 - Keyless, the leader in privacy-preserving biometrics, has been featured in the 2025 Deepfake Detection Market Report & Buyer’s Guide, published by Biometric Update and Goode Intelligence.
The report highlights the growing threat of deepfakes and the tools currently available to detect and prevent them. With the number of available tools for deepfake generation rising to more than 10,000 in 2024, biometric systems are expected to carry out almost 10 billion deepfake detection checks by 2027.
Keyless is profiled as a standout vendor for its Biometric Attack Prevention methodology, a unique, multi-layered defense system that virtually eliminates the risk of deepfake attacks on authentication systems.
Keyless has a four-step deepfake defense check:
  • Multi-Factor by Design technology: Authentication only succeeds if both the user’s face and the original (or securely bound) device are present.
  • Presentation Attack Detection: Passive liveness detection looks for signs of fake media, like unnatural light reflections or screen texture.
  • Injection Attack Prevention: The platform proactively blocks attempts to feed synthetic content directly into the authentication flow by detecting rooted devices, emulators, and other tampering tools.
  • Continuous Monitoring: Keyless monitors device movement and behavioral signals to flag anomalies during account recovery or high-risk flows.
As most deepfake attacks are remote, this layered defense makes deepfakes impossible to scale. Even during account recovery, the most common entry point for attackers spoofing a system with a deepfake, these layered protections help block attempts.
As the report notes, efforts are now underway to formalize international standards for defending against presentation and injection attacks - two of the main vectors exploited by deepfakes. Keyless is already certified to ISO/IEC 30107-3 for Presentation Attack Detection (PAD), and is on track to become the first vendor to achieve a ‘high’ classification under the CEN/TS 18099 standard, the world’s first certification for injection attack detection.
