Mitek Recognized in 2023 Gartner® Market Guide for User Authentication

Technology analyst firm spotlights Mitek MiPass, IDLive^® Face and IDVoice^® Verified

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mitek Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MITK), a global leader in digital identity and fraud prevention, has been named a Representative Vendor in the Gartner, Inc. 2023 Market Guide for User Authentication.

“User authentication is a cornerstone of digital identity and identity-first security,” Gartner said, summarizing the report’s findings. “IAM (identity access management)-focused and SRM (security risk management) leaders should seek toolsets that minimize account takeover risks and optimize employee and customer user experience as a part of a cohesive cybersecurity strategy that reflects human-centric design.”

Mitek’s MiPass, as well as IDLive Face and IDVoice Verified from Mitek company ID R&D, provides just such capabilities.

“We are glad to see Mitek recognized among other vendors in this Market Guide. We believe this is a testament to our ongoing commitment to innovation,” said Mitek Identity SVP Chris Briggs.

Included in the Gartner report for User Authentication are:

• Mitek MiPass, a passwordless identity authentication system, allows a person to access digital accounts effortlessly and securely using two factors that are uniquely theirs – voice and face – by simply taking a quick selfie and then recording a phrase.
• IDLive^® Face is used to process millions of monthly transactions for customers worldwide. It provides facial liveness detection to confirm that a biometric selfie includes the face of a live person, preventing spoofing attacks with the world’s first single-image, passive facial liveness detection capability. Importantly, it is the only single-image solution independently tested to be both ISO 30107-3 compliant and unbiased, improving security while adding zero friction to online transactions.
• IDVoice^® Verified performs biometric speaker verification while preventing online fraudsters from using speech synthesis, voice clones or recorded replay to try to fool authentication systems. IDVoice Verified fights biometric spoofing with advanced voice liveness detection, confirming the voice presented for identification purposes is that of a live, present person.

Mitek’s inclusion in the Gartner Market Guide follows its recognition in Javelin Strategy & Research’s 2023 Know Your Customer Solution Scorecard and leadership status in Liminal’s Link™ Index Report for Account Opening in Financial Services.

“Today’s criminal networks are deploying increasingly sophisticated tools to circumvent the systems that keep company data, their employees and customers safe,” said Mitek CEO Max Carnecchia. “These recent acknowledgements from key analysts in our space confirms our commitment to securing and authenticating customers, which is essential to being able to do business online.”
