Systems and methods for high fidelity multi-modal out-of-band biometric authentication through vector-based multi-profile storage
A method for generating multiple biometric profiles for a user is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the method may include (1) receiving data from a user, the data comprising biometric data for a user and device specifications for the electronic device; (2) at least one computer processor retrieving at least one existing user profile; (3) the at least one computer processor determining whether the data is consistent with at least one of the existing profiles; and (4) the at least one computer processor updating at least one existing profile if the data is consistent with the existing profile.
1. A method for authenticating a user, comprising:
receiving, from an electronic device, authentication data, the authentication data comprising user biometric data;
at least one computer processor comparing the authentication data to a plurality of existing user profiles;
the at least one computer processor selecting an algorithm and at least one authentication threshold for each of the plurality of existing profiles;
the at least one computer processor calculating a confidence score using the selected algorithm for each comparison with each of the plurality of existing profiles;
the at least one computer processor comparing each confidence score to the selected authentication threshold for each of the plurality of existing profiles; and
calculating a combined metric for the plurality of confidence scores.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
the at least one computer processor applying a spoofing risk factor to each confidence score.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
the at least one computer processor accessing a look up table to locate complementary biometric markers for spoof prevention.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
acquiring at least one complementary biometric marker from the user.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the at least one complementary biometric marker is acquired iteratively.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the number of iterations is based on a security level.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
the at least one computer processor performing at least one consistency check for each comparison with each of the plurality of existing profiles.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the authentication data further comprises electronic device data.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the electronic device data comprises at least one of a type of electronic device, at least one specification for the electronic device, and a device identifier.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the authentication data further comprises environmental data.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the environmental data comprises at least one of location data, lighting data, and noise data.
12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of existing profiles are based on a user location.
13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the algorithm and the authentication threshold are selected based on at least one of a type of profile, a type of the electronic device, and an environmental factor.
