iBeta: The Gold Standard in Biometric Testing
iBeta Quality Assurance is a globally recognized, independent third-party testing and certification organization. Accredited by NIST/NVLAP (NVLAP Lab Code: 200962), iBeta rigorously assesses biometric solutions against industry standards such as ISO/IEC 30107-3, ensuring that they meet stringent security and performance requirements. Their PAD testing evaluates a system’s ability to detect and prevent presentation attacks.
The Testing Process
iBeta put the 1Kosmos platform to the test on both a Google Pixel 8 (Android 14) and an Apple iPhone 16 (iOS 18.0). The testing simulated real-world scenarios, enrolling six individuals who then authenticated five times each. To challenge the system, iBeta employed five different Level 2 presentation attacks. The system was given a maximum of 24 hours to detect each attack. The tests also verified that the application was still able to recognize the genuine subject.


Perfect Score: A Testament to Robust Security
The results were clear: over 600 transaction attempts, iBeta was unable to breach 1Kosmos defenses. The platform achieved a remarkable 0% Imposter Attack Presentation Accept Rate (IAPAR). This perfect score signifies that 1Kosmos successfully blocked every presentation attack, demonstrating its exceptional ability to detect identity spoofing and prevent unauthorized access. Furthermore, the bona fide False Non-Match Rate (FNMR) was calculated.
Key Takeaways
1Kosmos has officially been certified compliant with ISO 30107-3 Biometric Presentation Attack Detection Standard at Level 2. This achievement underscores the 1Kosmos commitment to providing secure and reliable biometric authentication solutions. By achieving a perfect score in independent, rigorous testing, 1Kosmos proves its ability to protect against presentation attacks in real-world scenarios.
