The Remote Identity Validation Rally by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security tested biometric solutions under realistic attack scenarios, including live human participants and dynamic device-based vectors. Aware’s Intelligent Liveness was evaluated as variants A1 and P2 at the Maryland Test Facility, facing modern presentation and AI-driven impersonation threats.

In the active liveness evaluation—considered the most representative of real-world performance—Aware achieved zero successful attacks across classes A and B while keeping the Bona Fide Presentation Classification Error Rate (BPCER) below the strict 5% usability threshold. The system also ranked among the top three for user satisfaction on both iOS and Android platforms and secured a top-two position for processing efficiency.

Under passive testing with pre-collected images, Aware recorded zero successful attacks in attack class C, demonstrating robust accuracy against static biometric challenges. While passive assessments offer valuable benchmarks, they do not replicate live user interactions and dynamic spoofing techniques.

These results reinforce Aware’s positioning as a leader in combining high-assurance security with seamless user experiences, bolstering its appeal for government and enterprise deployments. The performance benchmarks set by the DHS evaluation provide a strong reference point for organizations prioritizing independent, real-world testing when selecting biometric identity solutions.
