iProov, the world’s leading provider of science-based biometric identity verification solutions, has won the inaugural Best Biometric Solution Category at the SC Awards Europe 2025. This significant achievement follows iProov’s back-to-back wins in SC’s Authentication Technology Category in 2024 and 2023, solidifying its position as a leading force in secure digital identity.

The SC Awards Europe are the longest-running cybersecurity competition, celebrating the industry’s top innovators, teams, and solutions. Organised by SC Media, a leading resource for cybersecurity professionals, the awards honour excellence across key areas like threat detection, cloud security, and leadership. The newly created Best Biometric Solution Award win recognizes iProov’s Biometric Solutions Suite, which enables secure and effortless biometric onboarding and authentication across both digital and physical access experiences and the critical role biometrics now plays in secure identity verification.  

The advent of generative AI tools, particularly their use in creating sophisticated deepfakes to fabricate or steal identities, has created a formidable security challenge for organizations seeking to onboard and authenticate users. In this rapidly evolving threat landscape, facial biometrics has emerged as one of the most secure and convenient methods for organizations to verify user identities online. iProov provides the highest level of assurance by confirming that the individual authenticating is the right person, a real person, and authenticating in real time.

“The creation of the new Biometric Solution category this year emphasizes just how crucial biometrics and liveness detection have become for securing digital trust,” said Andrew Bud, founder and CEO, iProov. “For iProov to win this inaugural award, especially after two consecutive wins for Authentication Technology, is a significant achievement that reinforces our leadership in providing organizations and their users with easy-to-use, secure, and inclusive biometric solutions.” 

The SC Awards Europe celebrates excellence in cybersecurity, from groundbreaking technologies to exceptional organizational achievements and individual leadership.
