According to CCTV reports, in the two cases of theft of citizens' personal information cracked by the police this year, the suspects used "AI face swapping technology" to illegally obtain citizen photos for certain pre-processing, and then generated dynamic videos through the "photo activation" software , after cheating the face verification mechanism, the crime was committed.
In fact, CCTV has paid attention to the gray industrial chain of facial information last year. According to a report by CCTV in September last year, on a second-hand online trading platform, the product name "Face Related Algorithm Training Dataset" was quickly popped up on a second-hand online trading platform, and the dataset contains more than 5,000 A photo of a human face is also a photo of a person with different expressions, and the price is only 10 yuan.
So, what is the purpose behind the transaction of facial information?
"Face information is associated with the individual's identity information, including ID number, mobile phone number, etc. Once the information is matched, the face can be made into a physical mask, which may be used by some criminals to log in and register for financial accounts, thereby transferring The victim’s account funds, or the victim’s burden of multiple online credit loans, can also be used to register a company for fraud. "A expert in technical security said that some simulated masks can nod and blink on the software to make fake moves such as fake ones. .
People can’t help but ask: Can masks unlock mobile phones instead of faces?
According to CCTV reports, researchers put masks on opposite sides of their phones and then adjusted the light, color temperature and angle. After several comparisons, the phone was successfully unlocked. Experts say that the production cost of this mask is not high, and 3D printing technology can produce human facial masks or head covers with reasonable accuracy.
The reporter found on the online shopping platform that some simple flat faces only cost more than ten yuan to customize and can successfully perform attendance check-in. If it is a latex and silicone mask with stronger emulation, it will cost 900 yuan to customize it.
