Supporting Face ID and Touch ID Authentication in iOS Using Swift 5

Protect sensitive user data in your iOS apps with Face ID and Touch ID authentication. This course dives deep into iOS security fundamentals and biometric authentication, equipping you with the skills to build secure applications for modern Apple devices.

You'll begin by understanding the hardware solutions that safeguard Apple devices from unauthorized access, gaining insights into the inner workings of both fingerprint recognition and facial recognition technologies. Learn how Apple prioritizes biometric data privacy and how to build upon those foundations.

Get hands-on experience developing a SwiftUI app incorporating advanced security features, enabling users to authenticate seamlessly using biometrics. We'll cover implementing a secure storage class using Keychain services for user credentials, alongside traditional username/password authentication.

Master the process of integrating Touch ID and Face ID into your iOS applications. Beyond basic implementation, you'll learn crucial strategies for handling errors and implementing robust fallback authentication methods. Specifically, we'll address the biometry lockout problem and empower users to unlock biometrics directly within your app.

By the end of this course, you'll be proficient in building iOS applications that efficiently protect sensitive user information and leverage the latest biometric authentication features available on modern iOS devices. Learn to create secure and user-friendly authentication experiences.
