Abstract: The present teaching relates to method, system, medium, and implementations for authenticating a user. An authentication session is first initiated to authenticate, via iris, a person claiming to be an authorized user, in which a first set of signals is randomly generated for controlling light strobing to be applied to the iris of the person for detecting liveness of the iris. A second set of signals is accordingly generated for controlling iris picture capturing synchronized with the light strobing. The light strobing is applied to the person via strobes generated based on the first set of signals and pictures of the iris of the person are acquired, based on the second set of signals, that are synchronized with the light strobing. Whether the person is live is then determined based on the synchronized pictures acquired when the light strobing is applied.
