To start off the new year with a bang, the Tech Buzzwords podcast from WhatIs.com tackles cognitive biometrics, a fast-growing new field used in authentication in the finance industry and beyond. To learn more about "cognometrics," Assistant Site Editor Alex Howard interviewed Patrick Audley, the CTO of bleeding-edge risk-adaptive software provider Cogneto.

    Tech Buzzwords of the Week · · 12:23

    In this WhatIs.com podcast you'll learn about FFIEC's attempt to modernize existing banking practices in the context of new online threats like phishing. Assistant Site Editor Alex Howard interviewed Patrick Audley, the CTO of risk-adaptive software provider Cogneto. Topics covered: how implementation of FFIEC recommendations changes the way customers use a bank; the difference between single-factor and multiple-factor authentication; whether a fingerprint, iris scanner, or voice-recognition system is sufficient under FFIEC guidance; how dynamic reporting decreases the incidence of fraud and what real-time risk analysis is; whether there are penalties for non-compliance; and where the majority of funds are stolen in phishing attacks.
