Instead of typing a password and then confirming your identity with an SMS code or a separate authenticator app, passkeys offer a seamless, phishing-resistant, and device-based method to prove who you are.   By tying authentication to public-key cryptography, passkeys let you securely verify your identity with a private key stored on your device (for example, within a secure hardware chip). This private key never leaves your device, drastically reducing the risk of credential theft or interception.

## API Reference
- [Finnish - Get Age Verification Liveness Result](https://docs.bynn.com/reference/getageverificationlivenessageverificationid.md): Get the result of an Age Verification Liveness session
- [Complete - Age Verification Liveness Result](https://docs.bynn.com/reference/getageverificationlivenessageverificationidcomplete.md): Run this to complete liveness session
- [Start - Age Verification with Liveness](https://docs.bynn.com/reference/patchageverificationlivenesssessionid.md): Age Verification with Liveness ensures the user is physically present in front of the camera by requiring real-time facial movement detection. This method prevents spoofing, deepfakes, and injection attacks by verifying biometric liveness before estimating age. It provides a significantly higher level of security compared to static selfie-based verification, making it the preferred choice for fraud prevention and regulatory compliance.
- [Create - Age Verification with Liveness](https://docs.bynn.com/reference/postageverificationliveness.md): Age Verification with Liveness ensures the user is physically present in front of the camera by requiring real-time facial movement detection. This method prevents spoofing, deepfakes, and injection attacks by verifying biometric liveness before estimating age. It provides a significantly higher level of security compared to static selfie-based verification, making it the preferred choice for fraud prevention and regulatory compliance.
- [No liveness - Age Verification with Selfie](https://docs.bynn.com/reference/postageverificationselfie.md): Age Verification with Selfie is a less secure method where you submit a user’s selfie to estimate their age. It does not ensure the user is physically present and does not detect deepfakes or injection attacks. This method is suitable for images where consent has been obtained but lacks liveness detection, making it vulnerable to spoofing. For higher security, we recommend using Age Verification with Liveness, which confirms real-time presence and enhances fraud prevention.
