How Serve Legal can help
The Risk
Liveness detection is a crucial aspect of biometric systems designed to prevent fraudulent activity. However, any vulnerability in this technology, such as the ability to bypass detection, exposes businesses to significant security threats and reputational damage. Additionally, poorly implemented liveness detection may create a frustrating user experience, leading to decreased customer trust and engagement.

How Serve Legal Help
Serve Legal supports businesses in testing the robustness of their liveness detection technology. Our comprehensive testing ensures that systems effectively distinguish between live human interactions and fraudulent attempts, offering businesses peace of mind and securing transactions.
What makes Serve Legal unique is our academic backing through Durham University, which adds an extra layer of reliability and credibility to our testing process. Additionally, our scale enables us to test liveness detection under a wide variety of real-world conditions, ensuring it performs effectively across diverse user interactions. Our coupled components approach ensures that the liveness detection technology is tested alongside other key systems, such as age estimation, to guarantee comprehensive functionality and security.

About us
In early 2006, Ed Heaver and Julian Sargeson were alcohol retailers with a problem. The local authority had decided one of their sites was consistently serving underage people.
They wanted to check their staff, measure the site performance and demonstrate to the authority they were taking the issue seriously. They couldn't find a company providing a cost-effective service, so they decided to do it themselves.
The business has since grown to become the market leading provider of compliance auditing services in the UK & Ireland, and a leading voice in the conversations around age-verification, food allergy policy and the implementation of fair biometric testing.
