Step into the future with Katsh, where the global transition to Digital Identities is not just embraced but redefined. Our bio-centric, privacy-focused solutions empower both businesses and consumers to navigate a world powered by trust and connectivity. Gone are the days of cumbersome passwords and security risks. Katsh is leading the charge towards a future where authentication is seamless, secure, and passwordless. LIFE WITH KATSH Video linkFor financial institutions committed to safeguarding their operations against fraud and providing seamless user experience, Katsh offers unparalleled technologies. Our solutions stand above the competition, outpacing the capabilities of Okta's Multi-Factor Authentication, Apple Face ID, Amazon One and various others. Katsh is designed to resist the power of Generative A.I. and the expansion of computing power, catering to the threats of the near future. In the wake of experiencing identity theft not once, but twice, Eli and Joe embarked on a mission to reinvent identity access management. Katsh, the ideation of their determination is a game-changer: Picture your palm, seamlessly integrated with our cutting-edge technology. This isn't just about security; it's about redefining the very essence of dynamic human detection and recognition. What we've built at Katsh is unparalleled and simply impossible to recreate by fraudsters, aiming to make Katsh immune to compromised devices and information and fake biometrics (3D printed or A.I. generated). Katsh's choice of using the hand as a biometric solution isn't arbitrary — it's a strategic move toward unparalleled security and inclusivity. Unlike facial recognition, which can be passively accessed on CCTV cameras, your palm remains under your control. It's a voluntary biometric, ensuring that only you have the power to authorize access. Moreover, the palm doesn't discriminate against gender, race or skin color like facial recognition, making it the epitome of user-friendliness and privacy in biometric technology. With Katsh, your palm becomes not just a tool, but the key to unlocking a future of seamless, secure authentication. Unlike others, we believe Katsh stands as the ultimate cross-device solution, allowing consumers to effortlessly consent their sensitive information with a simple hand wave, taking control of when, where, and by whom their information is accessed. "We want to build back trust in our digital world, by offering humanity seamless technologies and provide them access to their favorite products and services, while establishing a groundwork that will accelerate and secure societal and financial inclusion."– Eli FarhoodFounder, CEO of KatshKatshID is more than just a product, it's a movement. We believe that everyone deserves to have a secure and convenient digital identity that respects their privacy and autonomy. Our goal is to help as many businesses and consumers protect their sensitive information from scammers' abuse.
