Only nine companies have it
MTS became the first mobile operator in Russia to receive state accreditation for working with biometric data. This gives the company the opportunity to independently work with biometric data within the Unified Biometric System (UBS) and provide more effective user authentication, remote maintenance and protection against fraudulent attacks.
In addition, MTS can provide its biometric services to commercial organizations, opening up new business prospects in the field of confirming customer identities and ensuring their security.
Working with biometric data is an important trend in the digital world today, improving user identification processes and increasing the security of personal information.
Since the beginning of this year, organizations without accreditation in the EBS lose the ability to collect and use biometric data of clients, and at the moment only nine companies have received such accreditation, including Sberbank, VTB and Alfa Bank ;.
