Facial recognition is one of the most popular way to authenticate user into a system. This method is preferable considering the tendency of users for using the same password across multiple sites which made the user has already made his own account securities in vulnerable states. Using biometrics might supply solutions to solve this problem and facial recognition is one of the best biometric methods can be apply as a digital account security solution. This study to design a prototype system implementing facial recognition to verify users to measure how accurate these methods are. The method used here is Viola-Jones for face detection, Eigenface and Haar feature for face recognition from the OpenCV. The system was designed in Java. Based on the test results from the system designed, system can recognize user face with 100% accuracy if faces are shot in a well desirable condition. The system is able to recognize the user's face with various expressions including with or without glasses. However, the system has difficulty in recognizing user’s face in facing up, down, sideways position or blocked by accessories or body parts such as hands. After some experiment, it was proven that the system designed is accurate, reliable and safe enough to be implemented to digital authorization process.
