System and method for biometric authentication using social network

This invention describes a system for verifying a user's identity using their biometric data, such as a fingerprint or face scan. When a user attempts to authenticate, their biometric data is sent to a social network's computer. This social network computer then compares the provided biometric data against a profile it builds from the user's social media content to confirm their identity. The system can also generate a fraud score based on this comparison.

Why it matters: Filed before large-scale multimodal AI models were common. These models could now more effectively generate and update biometric templates from diverse social media content, though social network data access and privacy policies remain a significant hurdle.
