This paper presents a summary of the Competition on Face Morphing Attack Detection Based on Privacy-aware Synthetic Training Data (SYN-MAD) held at the 2022 In-ternational Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB 2022). The competition attracted a total of 12 participating teams, both from academia and industry and present in 11 differ-ent countries. In the end, seven valid submissions were submitted by the participating teams and evaluated by the organizers. The competition was held to present and at-tract solutions that deal with detecting face morphing at-tacks while protecting people's privacy for ethical and le-gal reasons. To ensure this, the training data was limited to synthetic data provided by the organizers. The submitted solutions presented innovations that led to out-performing the considered baseline in many experimental settings. The evaluation benchmark is now available at: https://github.com/marcohuber/SYN-MAD-2022.
