SPAIN: Veridas ECHO achieves an industry milestone by being the first voice solution to pass rigorous anti-fraud testing

PAMPLONA, SPAIN, December 18, 2024 / EINPresswire.com / -- Pamplona — December 17, 2024 – Veridas , a global leader in identity verification and biometrics, is proud to announce that its Veridas ECHO voice technology has successfully passed the iBeta Level 1 Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) assessment following the ISO/IEC 30107-3 standard.

This achievement makes Veridas ECHO the first voice solution on the

market to pass this test, proving that it can detect and block fraud attempts where voices are played over a speaker to fool the system. While Veridas ECHO is capable of detecting both synthetic and genuine voices, it is important to note that the iBeta assessment has only used genuine, crowdsourced voices to simulate attacks. The iBeta assessment, accredited by the FIDO Alliance as a trusted biometrics lab, is an independent, recognized test designed to evaluate how well a solution can stop “presentation attacks.” To pass the iBeta test, the system must block 100% of presented attacks.

“Veridas ECHO is not just a voice solution—it is a leap forward in security and innovation,” said Javier San Agustín, CTO of Veridas. “Successfully passing the iBeta assessment underscores our steadfast commitment to taking biometric technology to the next level, delivering solutions that prioritize trust, security, and user experience. This achievement represents a significant milestone, not just for Veridas, but for the entire voice biometrics industry.”
