✦ Spanish tech firm strengthens global role in protecting digital identity.
Alicante-based technology company Facephi has been recognised by international consultancy Gartner® as a Representative Vendor in its Market Guide for User Authentication 2025. The firm is also featured in Gartner’s Hype Cycle for Digital Identity 2025, reinforcing its standing as a leader in user authentication and digital identity verification.
This marks the second consecutive year that Facephi has been included in Gartner’s industry-leading reports, which are widely regarded as benchmarks for global technology trends.
Why This Matters
Digital identity is increasingly central to everyday life, from online banking to healthcare access. As cybercrime and online fraud rise worldwide, the need for robust yet user-friendly authentication methods has never been greater.
According to Gartner®, “By 2029, organisations implementing phishing-resistant MFA will experience 80% fewer credential-based security breaches than those still relying on traditional methods” (Gartner®, Market Guide for User Authentication 2025, published 11 August 2025).
Facephi’s recognition highlights how technology providers are evolving to meet these challenges, delivering multi-factor, biometric, and behaviour-based solutions that strengthen security without creating barriers for users.
What Facephi Offers
Facephi has developed a unified digital identity ecosystem that integrates:
Facial, fingerprint, and voice biometrics
Passive liveness detection (to confirm real users, not spoofed identities)
Behavioural analytics to monitor unusual patterns and detect fraud
All of this is delivered through an orchestrated KYC (Know Your Customer) platform, available via cloud, hybrid, or on-premise deployment.
Unlike traditional password-based security, Facephi enables passwordless authentication and phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA), both of which are fast becoming industry standards.
“Legacy authentication methods cannot keep up with cyber threats and digital fraud,” said Javier Mira, CEO of Facephi. “Being featured in Gartner®’s reports reinforces our commitment to user-centric digital identity, where biometrics, KYC orchestration, and behavioural analysis work together to enhance security without compromising the experience.”
Global Reach and Recognition
Facephi currently works with banks, fintechs, and regulated industries in more than 30 countries, processing over 300 million transactions. In March, the company was recognised by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for its excellence in presentation attack detection, topping international benchmarks set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Protecting Communities in the Digital Era
For individuals and businesses alike, digital identity protection is now essential. As online fraud grows, companies like Facephi are helping communities, from regional banks to global service providers, create safer, more accessible, and fraud-free processes.
With its latest recognition by Gartner®, Facephi cements its role as a trusted innovator in keeping digital interactions secure while ensuring technology remains human-focused and user-friendly. ❋
