Fortress Identity Biometric Authenticator (FortressBA)
User Authentication made simple with Compound Biometrics
Simplify authentication for users and increase your security
Fortress Identity is simplifying everything about secure authentication by introducing a biometric API into the equation.
Implement voice authentication directly in the browser and expand to include the user’s smart phone for true multi-factor authentication.

Integration Guide
Here is an example of how simple it is to implement Voice Authentication using JavaScript
Setup
Add the script to your page and add your license key.
<body>
<!-- Fortress Identity Script START -->
<div
data-widget-host="fortress"
data-props-callback="onFortress"
data-props-license="YOUR_LICENSE_KEY"
></div>
<script async src="https://js.fortress-identity.com/v1"></script>
<!-- Fortress Identity Script END -->
...
</body>
Initialize
Define the callback function you used during setup. Once the library is initialized the callback will be used to return the fortress object.
<script>
var fortress;
var onFortress = function(fort) {
fortress = fort;
};
</script>
Voice Phrase Modality
Enrollment
Before a user’s voice can be authenticated they must enroll in the system. You can prompt your users to enroll using the following:
fortress.voice
.enroll("USER_IDENTIFIER_GOES_HERE")
.then(() => {
console.log("Enroll Success");
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error);
});
Authentication
After a user’s voice is enrolled you can authenticate them at any time. A voice authentication contains two scores:
- The verification score. How closely the voice matches the enrollment. A number between 0 and 1, higher numbers mean a closer match.
- The antispoofing score. How likely the voice is a recording. A number between 0 and 1, higher means more likely to be not a recording.
fortress.voice
.authenticate("USER_IDENTIFIER_GOES_HERE")
.then(result => {
var verifyScore = result.verifyScore;
var antispoofScore = result.antispoofScore;
console.log('verify score is ' + verifyScore);
console.log('antispoof score is ' + antispoofScore);
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error);
});
