Spoof detection by correlating images captured using front and back cameras of a mobile device

Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for determining that a subject is a live person include obtaining a first image captured using a first camera disposed on a first side of a mobile device and obtaining a second image captured using a second camera disposed on a second side of the mobile device that is on the opposite side of the first side. The first image includes a representation of reflections visible on the corneas of a subject. The first image and the second image are pre-processing to generate a third image and a fourth image, respectively, where a first field of view represented in the third image at least partially overlaps with a second field of view of the fourth image. A determination is made, based on the third and fourth images, that a scene represented in the first field of view is substantially same as a scene represented in the second field of view. Responsive to determining that the scene represented in the first field of view is substantially same as the scene represented in the second field of view, identifying the subject as a live person.
