IFAA – China’s experience with biometric, authentication and standardization

Learn more about IFAA and Ant Financial’s strategy.

China leads many countries in the era of mobile internet. With proliferated use, identity authentication and security becomes of prime concern. To satisfy and meet high standards of security, the IFAA (Internet Finance Authentication Alliance) was founded in 2015 by Ant Financial Services Group together with members like Alibaba, Samsung, Huawei and ZTE. The standards developed by the alliance is interoperable across leading manufacturers of handsets, with more than 200 million active users.

Does the IFAA model meet the demands of Chinese users, or is this also a siloed approach? Will this inspire a global standardization for authentication and security?

Andy Yao, Marketing Director at IFAA, will share his insights on IFAA, along with many use cases and scenarios at GPS 2018.
