Protecting Your Biometric Data With AI Camouflage
Rachele Didero, the Founder and CEO of Cap_able, spoke at Imagination In Action’s ‘Forging the Future of Business with AI’ Summit and raised thought-provoking questions about the use of biometric data. Imagine being able to extract personal information just by taking a picture or tracking behaviors without consent. This technology is already being used in some countries, leading to concerns about accuracy and privacy.
The Issue with Biometric Data Collection
Consumers are increasingly concerned about the misuse of biometric data, with only 5% trusting the security of their information in 2024. Parents, in particular, recognize the importance of protecting their children’s data. The main issue lies in the lack of control over the use of this technology, as many are unaware of its presence.
- 81% of consumers are worried about biometric data use.
- 90% of parents value their children’s privacy.
- Lack of ability to opt-in or opt-out of biometric data collection.
