Denver’s Ping Identity has completed the acquisition of biometric authentication specialist Keyless.
The deal brings London-based Keyless’ Zero-Knowledge Biometrics technology into Ping’s portfolio, adding device-independent biometric authentication and re-verification that does not store biometric data in a retrievable or reconstructable form.
The technology enables users to be re-verified in under 300 milliseconds with a single glance, using cryptographic techniques designed to counter threats such as deepfakes, account takeover and identity spoofing.
Ping said the acquisition improves its ability to provide continuous identity assurance across the full identity lifecycle, including onboarding, access, step-up authentication and account recovery.
