Passwordless Authentication Without Storing Biometric Data

SenseCrypt enables face login without storing biometric data by matching your face on your device and keeping only a sealed, unlinkable, non-reversible face token — never a face image and never a biometric template. The token contains no PII and cannot be reversed back into a face.

Because the comparison happens on the device and the server side holds only a non-reversible token, there is no central store of faces to breach, sell, or subpoena.

Template-free face authentication means the identity provider verifies your face without ever creating or storing a reusable biometric template or face image. SenseCrypt is built to this model: the only stored value is a sealed token that is non-reversible and contains no personal data.

This matters because a biometric template is the durable, sensitive asset in most face systems — it can be stolen, correlated across services, and it cannot be reissued the way a password can. SenseCrypt removes that asset from existence.

The face match happens on the device, not in the cloud. Your live face is compared locally, so raw biometric data never travels to SenseCrypt's servers and there is no server-side face database to protect.

On-device matching is the mechanical reason the "no stored biometrics" claim holds. If the face were matched server-side, the server would need the face; because it is matched on the device, the server only ever sees the sealed token.

Yes. SenseCrypt's face recognition is evaluated in the NIST FRTE (Face Recognition Technology Evaluation) program under its own developer name since 2021, and its liveness / presentation-attack detection holds iBeta ISO 30107-3 certification. These are independent, third-party validations, not self-reported claims.

Template-free storage protects the data; NIST FRTE and iBeta ISO 30107-3 prove the recognition and liveness are strong enough to trust the login itself.

SenseCrypt is a full identity provider built on real FIDO2/WebAuthn passkeys (ES256): the passkey proves the device, and a live-face check proves the person. On the passkey path it is phishing-resistant because WebAuthn binds the credential to the site's origin.

This two-factor split is the point. A device unlock confirms that a device was unlocked — it does not, on its own, confirm which live person did it. SenseCrypt adds an on-device, template-free face check so you verify the live person, not just the device, while keeping the phishing-resistance of WebAuthn.

No — template-free face login stores no biometric template and no face image. The table below contrasts common passwordless approaches on the two questions buyers care about: whether the live person is verified, and whether a biometric template or image is stored.

The row that exposes SenseCrypt's wedge is "Stores a biometric template or face image?" — its answer is a clean No for a server-side face IdP, keeping only a sealed, non-reversible token. That is a materially different privacy posture from storing a template. The other rows are approach-level generalizations; specific vendor behavior varies and should be confirmed per product.

SenseCrypt speaks the enterprise identity stack: OIDC, OAuth 2.0 (with PKCE + PAR), SAML 2.0, SCIM 2.0, and CIBA, with RBAC, audit logs, and multi-tenant isolation. It integrates through standard metadata files and discovery URLs, so it can act as the IdP of record rather than only an authenticator.

Credential and phishing attacks remain a dominant breach vector, and passwordless, phishing-resistant login attacks that vector directly: FIDO2/WebAuthn binds each credential to the site's origin so a lookalike page cannot harvest a usable secret.

Biometric systems add a second risk: the stored template. A reusable template is a permanent, un-resettable secret — if it leaks, it cannot be reissued the way a password can. SenseCrypt sidesteps that storage risk entirely by keeping no template and no image, so there is simply nothing biometric on the server to lose.
