The Agentur f\u00fcr Innovation in der Cybersicherheit (Cyberagentur) has launched a new ground-breaking project that aims to take digital identity security to a new level. The research project \u201cDigital authentication using novel biometric methods\u201d (AuBi) aims to set new standards for digital authentication using novel biometric methods. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

In a world in which digital profiles and identities are increasingly interlinked and personal data plays a central role, “AuBi” represents a decisive step towards closing security gaps. By using specific biometric data based on physical, psychological and behavioral characteristics, digital identities are to be made forgery-proof. “We want to effectively prevent the misuse of the digital \u2018I\u2019 in the future and decisively strengthen the privacy of users,” emphasizes project manager Kristin Biegner, research officer in the Cyberagentur’s Secure Society department. <\/p>\n\n

The project is divided into three innovative subject areas: Stimulus-induced biometrics, behavioral biometrics and universal patterns. Each of these fields offers unique methods for securing authentication processes: <\/p>\n\n

    \n
  1. Stimulus-induced biometrics: A specific stimulus is emitted, the physical reaction of which is recorded and used to create a unique stimulus-response pair. This process promises a high level of security against manipulation and data theft. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Behavioral biometrics: Individual behaviors, such as walking or typing on a smartphone, are used to ensure continuous authentication. Devices such as smartphones or tablets can be locked immediately if they fall into the hands of unauthorized persons. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Universal patterns: This exciting new field of research investigates biometric patterns that can be triggered in the same and unique way for all people, and thus represents a promising direction for future authentication strategies.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    Researchers are invited to apply to the Cyberagentur and become part of this forward-looking initiative that aims to make digital identity more secure. \u201cAuBi opens the door to a new era of digital security that is not only efficient but also user-friendly,\u201d says project manager Kristin Biegner. <\/p>\n\n

    The invitation to tender was published in the Supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union with the award number 417702-2024:<\/strong> https: \/\/ted.europa.eu\/de\/notice\/-\/detail\/417702-2024<\/a> End of the call for tenders is 15.08.2024<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
