authID (Nasdaq: AUID) has launched PrivacyKey™, a groundbreaking solution for its biometric identity authentication platform that eliminates biometric data storage risks and compliance issues. The technology enhances authID's Proof™ and Verified™ solutions by implementing a key-pair system that processes facial biometrics without storing actual biometric data.

During authentication, the private key is recreated and matched with the public key through an encrypted message. The platform maintains high performance with 700ms processing speeds and one-in-one billion false-match accuracy.
PrivacyKey™ also features advanced key-management capabilities, allowing enterprises to rotate and revoke keys while ensuring authorized-only access. This innovation addresses growing concerns about biometric data security and compliance with increasing regulatory requirements across different jurisdictions.
