Selfie pay: an innovative system for online payments Biometrics will soon replace the use of passwords and this will not only benefit our poor memories - " Passwords being a pain " according to Mastercard - but will make our banking operations more secure, for example. It was only science fiction, we would not have ruled until recently, but technologies of this type are now mature and consolidated to offer the quality according to which standards they must offer us a more reliable, more agile and easier to use service, as well as more convenient for the users who will need to use it.
In fact, the news that has appeared in recent Find Your Phone Number months is the launch by Mastercard of an identification system based on facial biometrics, which, by taking a selfie with one's smartphone (called selfie pay ), is able to verify the personal details of the customer of the card, avoiding scams and the possibility of cloning payment systems, or even worse the reuse of the card following theft. This new recognition system is used for online transactions and was launched last October in 12 countries: UK, Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Holland, Norway, Spain , and Sweden and trials are left in the USA and Canada . Obviously there is no trace of Italy. Obviously it allows not only to avoid scams, but also to remember passwords, which are a problem for all economic transactions on the web.

Obviously, as an Italian - and I don't know if this is a boast - recognized as "forgery fathers" and geniuses of deception, I am naturally curious to see also on a global level what solutions will be adopted to violate these security systems.
