Summary

Traditional account recovery methods such as security questions, email links, and SMS codes are vulnerable to password reuse, phishing, SIM swapping, and publicly exposed personal information, while also creating difficulties for legitimate users. The passage presents facial biometric verification with liveness detection as a stronger alternative, provided biometric data is handled through privacy-focused practices such as immediate deletion and sharing only verification results. It also describes reusable, self-sovereign digital identities based on Decentralized Identifiers and Verifiable Credentials as a way to reduce repeated identity checks and give users greater control over their data, with eIDAS2 supporting legally recognized identities in the EU. It argues that the most secure recovery systems combine biometrics, trusted-device recognition, authenticator-app codes, and limited knowledge-based checks in layered workflows. Didit is presented as a provider of modular recovery tools, including certified liveness detection, reusable KYC, workflow orchestration, APIs, and privacy-by-design features.
