To break the iPhone X face recognition is not easy, but according to a group of security testing personnel research shows that iPhone X's Face ID may really be that everyone can crack.
Bkav, a Vietnam-based company that had tried to crack the face recognition of the iPhone X with elaborate masks, now claims it has found an unlocking method that uses a series of self-captured images to create a new mask to crack Apple's latest Type of face recognition biotechnology.
Earlier, Apple had accepted the fact that although Face ID technology was not perfect enough to be deceived by twins, for most people the security threat did not exist, and the mask at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino To assure the user that the biometric technology is very safe, but soon after Bkav company severely beaten face.
Materials and tools for making plaster masks are available to everyone.
Bkav creates a relatively inexpensive mask that shows users how to successfully mask Face ID through blog posts and video presentations.
The researcher explained in a blog post: 'In this new experiment, Bkav used a 3D printed mask made of lime powder at a cost of about $ 200, with the upper eye using a 2D infrared image to mimic Bkav experts found masks made of lime powder cracked face recognition better than previous masks made of paper, while 2D infrared images were used in the eyes, and Apple's Face ID was exactly the same Of the technology to detect face images.In addition, the materials and tools used to make plaster masks can be found by everyone.
To make matters worse, the researchers also said that the gypsum mask making process does not require specific expertise, accurate face scan and close-up images.
The blog post also wrote: 'Bkav's researchers say it's easy to make 3D-printed masks, and in just a few seconds, people can take the right people with pre-set cameras at different camera angles Face images can then be processed through algorithms to create a 3D printed mask.
Can anyone really make plaster masks to crack face recognition in the real world? We contacted both Apple Inc. and Bkav, but have not heard anything yet. If we get a reply, we'll update it right away Reported.
iPhone X users should be worried about this problem, perhaps do not worry too much.After all, in your subway to get off work, to steal your cell phone and secretly capture your face image, this process is not easy.
However, if someone wants to get specific content on your phone and is willing to spend time and energy on making a 3D printed mask, then you may want to worry about this, of course, if you use a digital lock instead of Face ID, you Do not worry about it at all.
Research from Bkav reminds people that no consumer biotech is reliable, and that hacking tools and techniques increase even as biotech security continues to improve.
