Taipei, TAIWAN – September 7, 2023 – CyberLink Corp. (5203.TW), a pioneer in AI and facial recognition technologies, today announced it has achieved KISA certification for the Korean Market. As the leading Korean cybersecurity organization, the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) is devoted to successful digital innovation for the purpose of creating a safe, trusted, and convenient digital society. Obtaining KISA certification further confirms the superior accuracy and performance of CyberLink’s facial recognition engine, FaceMe®.

KISA Certification Process 

KISA certification, conducted by K-NBTC (National Biometric Testing Center), is based on biometric recognition algorithm performance testing. Certification standards are established via a certification committee comprised of experts focused on securing objectivity in standards and test results, with certificates granted to technologies that meet the committee criteria. Modeled on and ISO international standards, the K-NBTC designed the process to be suitable for global standards, with a goal to promote the export of accurate and interchangeable domestic biometric recognition systems.

FaceMe® Facial Recognition Accuracy Passes with Flying Colors

FaceMe®’s biometric algorithms fully passed K-NBTC’s stringent certification tests with excellent accuracy marks. Under the various such as different lighting conditions, facial expressions, face angles, and accessories, FaceMe® achieved 100% accuracy (0% EER, Equal Error Rate).

FaceMe KISA certification

“As a top ranked AI facial recognition engine, delivering biometric identity verification solutions for a multitude of situations and environments,” said Dr. Jau Huang, CEO of CyberLink. “FaceMe®’s recent KISA certification demonstrates CyberLink’s commitment to ensuring international security requirement compliance.”

In addition to being certified by KISA, FaceMe® has been recognized as an industry leader in facial recognition technologies by other organizations, including NIST and iBeta. FaceMe® achieved an impressive True Acceptance Rate (TAR) of 99.83% in the most recent NIST FRVT 1:1 test (March 9, 2023) and passed iBeta Level 2 Compliant liveness detection tests under the standard of ISO 30107-3 Presentation Attack Detection (PAD). This anti-spoofing technology ensures effective prevention of impersonation or substitution attempts using high-definition photos, videos, or 3D masks.

FaceMe®’s facial recognition technology can be applied not only in various security scenarios such as security monitoring, access control, and employee attendance tracking, but it can also help enterprises significantly reduce manpower and labor costs. Additionally, its high accuracy and robust anti-spoofing technology are excellent for financial services (eKYC) and secure two-factor authentication, helping to address identity theft and account fraud issues currently faced by the financial industry.
