The hack that could make face recognition think someone else is you

Face recognition is rapidly proliferating as a way to identify people at airports and in high security scenarios—but it's far from foolproof.

Researchers have demonstrated that they can fool a modern face recognition system into seeing someone who isn’t there.

A team from the cybersecurity firm McAfee set up the attack against a facial recognition system similar to those currently used at airports for passport verification. By using machine learning, they created an image that looked like one person to the human eye, but was identified as somebody else by the face recognition algorithm—the equivalent of tricking the machine into allowing someone to board a flight despite being on a no-fly list.
