  • CAMBRIDGE - Harvard University students are known for being ahead of the game and two juniors are living up to the hype.
    Anhphu Nguyen and Caine Ardayfio created a software that can reveal someone's name, address, phone number and biography from a single image.
    The duo has each spent years coding, and coming up with their latest app took just days. "We use a bunch of public data sources to demonstrate it's possible to get someone's personal information from just their face," said Anhphu Nguyen.
    Scan sends personal image to phone
    The pair are using Meta Ray-Bans which have a camera in the lens, to stream live video through Instagram and the program they created. Within a minute and a half, their scan of someone can return personal information about a person right to their phone.
    "Warning shot heard around the world"
    CBS Boston Cybersecurity expert Peter Tran said the students had built one of the clearest proof of concepts for this technology.
    "It's literally a proof of concept," said Tran. "This is a warning shot that is heard around the world. I am both excited and really scared to the point where it will probably keep me up at night from a cybersecurity standpoint."
    The students have created a "why" for people to take their information off public databases within minutes. But Tran warned that even if your information is privatized on these websites, others could pop up in a matter of time.
