Board Member Dr. Shane Shook Presents on Proofing Digital Identity with Behavioral Biometrics

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–BehavioSec, the industry pioneer and technology leader for behavioral biometrics and continuous authentication, is sponsoring the ISMG Virtual Cybersecurity & Fraud Summit, taking place tomorrow, November 17. This Virtual Summit is dedicated to offering attendees practical advice from a network of ISMG cybersecurity and fraud experts to learn how to best adapt and balance productivity, accessibility and security, in today’s remote working environments.

BehavioSec Board Member Dr. Shane Shook, Venture Consultant at ForgePoint Capital and previously Managing Director at PwC, will present on the topic, “Proofing Digital Identity with Continuous Authentication & Behavioral Biometrics.” Dr. Shook will discuss the increase in attacks on digital identities as a result of the pandemic, and the need for a machine-scale, frictionless authentication and continuous authorization solution that proves digital identities match the humans behind them – a solution such as behavioral biometrics.

“Cybercriminal objectives and methods change along with advances in market technology, so now is the time to move beyond traditional methods,” said Dr. Shook. “Behavioral biometrics offers a better balancing-act between security, privacy, compliance and user experience to deliver a frictionless, continuous experience that secures private use of your digital identity.”
