A method for enhancing user liveness detection is provided that includes calculating, by a computing device, a first angle and a second angle for each frame in a video of captured face biometric data. The first angle is between a plane defined by a front face of the terminal device and a vertical axis, and the second angle is between the plane defined by the front face of the terminal device and a plane defined by the face of the user. Moreover, the method includes creating a first signal from the first angles and a second signal from the second angles, calculating a similarity score between the first and second signals, and determining the user is live when the similarity score is at least equal to a threshold score.
