Cybercriminals are targeting iOS users with malware that steals Face ID scans to break into and pilfer money from bank accounts - thought to be a world first. iOS target Android and iOS respectively, tricking users into performing biometric verification checks that are ultimately used to bypass the same checks employed by legitimate banking apps in Vietnam and Thailand - the geographic focus of these ongoing attacks.
This growth's unintended side effect is an ever-expanding attack surface that, coupled with the availability of easily accessible and criminally weaponized generative AI tools, has increased the need for highly secure remote identity verification. "Generative AI has provided a huge boost to threat actors' productivity levels: these tools are relatively low cost, easily accessed, and can be used to create highly convincing synthesized media such as face swaps or other forms of deepfakes that can easily fool the human eye as well as less advanced biometric solutions. This only serves to heighten the need for highly secure remote identity verification," says Andrew Newell, Chief Scientific Officer, iProov.
