Sonic and Ultrasonic Authentication Solution Working on All Mobile Phones
The CopSonic SDK allows contactless multi-factor authentication based on ultrasounds or sounds. This SDK is the first to introduce an “airgap” with encrypted analog information into the digital circuit. The security level thus achieved by CopSonic reaches current military security levels.

CopSonic is a universal solution working on all feature phones, smart phones, smart watches, tablets, computers, smart devices, internet of things, etc. as long as they are equipped with speakers and/or a microphone. It is operational on all standard GSM networks, on the internet or any other TCP-IP compatible network. The solution requires no change of Telco or of the existing hardware.

CopSonic enables e-commerce, financial and cybersecurity industries to propose a universal and secure solution for strong authentication to all of their customers worldwide. This authentication solution is an alternative to the use of online and/or offline passwords.

PhonicAccess and GateSonic are anti-phishing use cases of this highly secured technology. Also, for the first time, CopSonic enables the use of smart-bracelets as a secure access key.

Workshop

Real-time Scoring of Behavioural Biometrics via Web Services
Presenting our web & mobile SDK, we are diving deep into the backend services and showing how easy it is to instrument a website or mobile app with frictionless behavioural biometrics to add a new layer of security.

In an interactive session we are demonstrating a number of use cases of both real-time scoring and ‘after the fact’ biometrics forensics. We open up the client SDK to show the APIs, file formats, etc. In parallel, we expose the typical integration points to see the architecture and the power the backend web service APIs offer developers to represent additional transaction security in a way that suits your organization’s business needs.

How they describe themselves: Behalf is a smart, new way for small businesses to finance almost any purchase, fast and fairly.

It starts with our proprietary method of credit scoring, which looks at both the business and its owner in a new way, enabling us to bring much-needed short-term purchase financing to more SMBs.

We pay vendors directly on behalf of SMBs, and take care of collecting repayments on behalf of the vendor. An intelligent twist on the traditional model, it’s better and more efficient for both parties.

No matter where your business is on its growth curve, Behalf is the smartest way to pay.

How they describe their product/innovation: We are showing the value of our platform to vendors through a simple demonstration of how easy it is for a vendor to preapprove his customers, onboard them, and offer them the Behalf credit line they need.

Next, we are demonstrating Behalf’s value for the SMB, including how our flexible credit line increases over time as the SMB demonstrates good credit behavior. We are showing all of this through the view of the customer dashboard and what’s possible there.
