Apple releases a white paper on “Face ID Security”

Apple has released a white paper on the security of Face ID — it’s new facial recognition and unlocking system in the upcoming iPhone X. You should get the PDF from here: https://images.apple.com/business/docs/FaceID_Security_Guide.pdf

Here’s a bit I thought was interesting: “Face ID data, including mathematical representations of your face, is encrypted and only available to the Secure Enclave. This data never leaves the device. It is not sent to Apple, nor is it included in device backups.”
