How biometric binding closes the analog gap

FaceLock seals a face template into the credential so verification needs both the document and the holder present.

# How biometric binding closes the analog gap Credential fraud often succeeds because verification stops at "is this document valid?" instead of "is this the person it belongs to?" ## What current systems usually check Current credential systems typically verify: - That certificates are cryptographically valid - That devices are authentic - That credentials have not been revoked They often cannot verify: - That the right person is using the credential - That the credential has not been stolen or shared - That the holder is physically present ## What FaceLock adds FaceLock embeds a biometric template in the credential at issuance. Verification requires the credential and the physical presence of the holder. A borrowed card or a forwarded digital pass fails the face check. ## What changes in practice Staff can confirm the person matches the credential in seconds, including offline. That does not invent new fraud categories away; it closes the gap where a valid credential is presented by the wrong person.
