My main use for 1Kosmos BlockID was a project in which we had to develop a facial recognition system for another company at the gate of their building. After the facial recognition was completed, we encrypted all of that data and stored it into a database where it was possible to access and review who entered the building.

Passwordless workflows have reduced credential overhead and now simplify secure user access
What is our primary use case?
1Kosmos BlockID is primarily used for password verification and passwordless authentication use cases.
A specific use case and one of the primary day-to-day uses for 1Kosmos BlockID is passwordless authentication for internal applications and secure access workflows.

Secure, Fast, and Truly Passwordless
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about 1Kosmos Verify is its passwordless, biometric-based authentication, which noticeably strengthens security while still delivering a quick, user-friendly login experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main drawback of 1Kosmos Verify is its complex initial setup and higher cost, along with a learning curve for users unfamiliar with passwordless and decentralized identity systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1Kosmos Verify addresses key challenges tied to password-based authentication, identity fraud, and overly complex user onboarding.
First, it reduces the risks that come with passwords—such as phishing, credential theft, and constant password resets—by enabling a fully passwordless login experience using biometrics and QR-based authentication. This strengthens security while also easing the workload on IT support teams.
Second, it helps with identity verification by combining biometric authentication with ID verification and liveness detection. This adds confidence that the person accessing the system is truly who they claim to be, which is especially important in compliance-heavy environments like finance or enterprise access.
It also makes onboarding and day-to-day login simpler. Rather than juggling multiple credentials or OTPs, users can verify themselves and access systems in just a few steps, improving productivity and overall satisfaction.
Overall, the main benefits I see are reduced reliance on passwords (and the support issues that come with them), a stronger security posture against phishing and unauthorized access, more streamlined onboarding and authentication, and a faster, more convenient login experience.
