P&P Secure said on Tuesday it has supplied its visual hacking prevention solution FaceLocker to a South Korean savings bank and completed installation at the bank’s headquarters.
The bank adopted FaceLocker to address risks such as staff photographing work screens with smartphones or unauthorised users viewing screens, the company said. The rollout applies to departments including the IT division and the audit team.
Work screens at financial companies display important information such as customers’ personal data, system operation information and internal review materials. Information can be leaked if a screen is photographed, even without downloading files or sending them outside.
FaceLocker detects risk situations such as screen capture, access by others and users leaving their seats. It verifies users in real time using facial data and checks, even after login, whether the person using the screen is an authorised user.
P&P Secure said that while major financial groups have been pursuing visual hacking response projects, the movement has recently been spreading to the savings bank industry as well.
