In this era of passwords, Lenovo VeriFace identifies users by matching unique features of human faces with the photographs it takes by the webcam. It allows entry only if the face matches with the pictures taken earlier with the webcam. Although, in 2009 It was reported that the version available could be fooled by holding up a photograph of the person whose face is the password in front of the webcam, and therefore offers only limited security to the people using it. But today it has covered its weakness and currently it is not so easy to fool the software with a photograph of the person whose face is the password.
VeriFace comes preloaded in some IdeaPad netbooks and notebooks and it works only on currently only works on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8. It does not work on previous versions of Microsoft Windows.
VeriFace is a facial recognition software which can do:
- Windows Login
- Leaving a video message
- Login log review
- File encryption/decryption
It is a registered trademark of Lenovo and was the first Face Verification Technology on public computer.
This kind face-recognition software is usually used in security systems, but Veriface is mainly suitable for enhanced Windows log-in actions or for various file encryption and decryption purposes. For optimal usage it should be installed on Windows XP Home or Professional systems. This application uses a powerful facial recognition algorithm that analyses size, position, shape, eye color, jaw dimensions and other characteristics of a face from an image. Then, the algorithm uses mathematical functions to compare the data of the acquired images with the data of the images already scanned and stored in a database. It recognizes your face using the mathematical algorithms of the image comparison process, and if the face matches it will log you in automatically to your computer .

The advantage of a face recognition system is that no password is needed and no other person will be able to log in to your computer except you. VeriFace can also be used for encrypting files. The procedure is similar to the log-in process excepting the capture window. You also need a capture of your facial image, but in this case it is used as a file encryption password. Only you will be able to open and read a file encrypted with VeriFace.
