A company is introducing face scanning to verify users. The organization wants to keep personal data hidden from outside access and maintain strong authentication. Which method meets this goal most effectively?
Transmit scanned data to a third-party service that holds user identities for faster matching
Maintain the raw image for each user on a central server with strict access permissions
Store raw face images locally in unencrypted form to speed up the verification process
Create an encrypted record from the captured image and keep it on the user’s device for comparison
Protecting scanned data by transforming it into an encrypted reference stored on the user’s device helps ensure minimal exposure of sensitive information to external systems. It prevents raw images from becoming a target in a large database while still permitting accurate and secure verification. Storing raw data or sending complete images to external locations elevates the chance of data leaks. Relying on unencrypted local storage makes the content vulnerable if the system is compromised.
