The recognition highlights Jumio’s technical innovation and real-world impact in helping businesses protect against the growing threat of identity fraud, including phishing and injection attacks. Winners are selected by an independent panel of cybersecurity professionals, analysts and CISOs from the Cybersecurity Insiders community.

“This award reflects the reality of today’s threat landscape, where AI is being used to create more compelling identities,” said Bala Kumar, president and interim CEO at Jumio. “With Liveness Premium, we’ve created a biometric authentication solution that provides businesses with superior protection against phishing and injection attacks, and confidence in onboarding users safely while expecting the fast, seamless experience customers expect. As theft evolves, identity authentication must change quickly.”

Jumio’s premium liveness solution uses active light, Jumio’s patented technology, to provide enhanced protection against sophisticated fraud attempts. By analyzing contextual indicators such as device status and dynamic lighting responses, the solution can identify deepfakes and camera injection attacks that bypass standard authentication methods. This advanced security is delivered within a standard ID-plus-selfie onboarding process, allowing businesses to enhance security without sacrificing the user experience.

Clients using Liveness Premium are already seeing measurable results. In another announcement, Latin America’s leading fintech has discovered more than 30% of attempted thefts, including serious attacks and fake identity attacks. The solution is built on Jumio’s proven data intelligence platform, which has processed more than a billion transactions across more than 200 countries and territories and is supported by industry certifications including SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, PCI DSS and ISO/IEC 30107-3 Level 2 Jumio has already processed more than 100 million authentication transactions since launching Liveness Premium in June 2025.
