Keyless Liveness Technology Praised in Deepfake and Synthetic Identity Prism Report

12 June 2025

London, June 12, 2025 - Keyless, the leader in privacy-preserving biometrics, has been recognized in Acuity Market Intelligence’s Deepfake and Synthetic Identity Prism Report as a Luminary in the Passwordless Authentication category.
The report categorizes companies into Pulsars, Catalysts, and Luminaries. At the highest level, Luminaries are recognized for their outstanding level of proficiency and their ability to set trends in the industry. Keyless’ Luminary category reflects its leadership in biometric authentication and its innovative approach to deepfake detection.
Keyless was particularly commended for its 4-step approach.
  1. Multi-Factor by Design: A successful authentication requires both the user’s face and the original device used during enrollment, or one later tied to the account. Even if a deepfake was used, without the original device used to sign up to an account the fraudster wouldn’t be able to access it.
  2. Presentation Attack Detection (PAD): While deepfakes can mimic active checks like blinks and nods, Keyless goes beyond this by using passive checks based on a list of confidential indicators. Typical passive checks can include checking for unique textures and light reflections.
  3. Injection Attack Detection: The Keyless system also uses machine learning to identify compromised devices and biometric inconsistencies caused by spoofing tools or emulators.
  4. Behavioral Signals: By leveraging deep learning, Keyless’ system analyzes visual and motion data (such as video motion, accelerometer, and gyroscopic movements) to spot any unnatural or mismatched movements.
This recognition highlights Keyless' commitment to innovation and leadership. As deepfakes continue to evolve, identity verification and authentication solutions must not only respond but also stay one step ahead. As this report demonstrates, Keyless is well positioned to lead the fight against emerging deepfake and synthetic identity threats.

Passwordless is Just the Beginning.
The Future is Keyless.
