Biometrics and Verification

Biometrics is automated methods of recognizing a person based on a physiological or behavioural characteristic. Among the features measured are face, fingerprints, hand geometry, handwriting, iris, retinal, vein, and voice. Biometric data are separate and distinct from personal information.

Biometrics and IT securityAuthentication is a type of system that relies on the unique biological characteristics of individuals to verify identity for secure access to electronic systems.Identification The automatic identification of living individuals by using the physiological and behavioural characteristics; "negative identification can only be accomplished through biometric identification and Verification is any means by which a person can be uniquely identified by evaluating one or more distinguishing biological traits. Unique identifiers include fingerprints, hand geometry, earlobe geometry, retina and iris patterns, voice waves, DNA, and signatures

Physical Biometrics:

Finger Print Recognition techniques

A fingerprint I system needs to get an image of your finger, and it needs to determine whether the pattern of ridges and valleys in this image matches the pattern of ridges and valleys in pre-scanned

images.

This is the identification of the individual by the unique pattern in the face.Facial recognition (or face recognition) is a type of biometric software application that can

identify a specific individual in a digital image by analyzing and comparing patterns

 Iris Recognition

This is the identification of the individual by the unique pattern in the iris.It is an automated recognition technique as a biometrically based technology for personal

identification and verification.

Retina Recognition

This is an automated method of biometric identification that uses mathematical pattern-recognition techniques on video images of one or both of the irises of an individual's eyes, whose complex random patterns are unique, stable, and can be seen from some distance.

Behavioral Biometrics: This is the identification of a person from characteristics of voices voice recognition there is a difference between speaker recognition (recognizing who is speaking) and speech recognition

 (recognizing what is being said).

Signature/handwriting

Signature recognition authentication, or dynamic signature analysis, authenticates identity by measuring and analyzing handwritten signatures

Keystroke/patterning

Keystroke dynamics monitors keyboard inputs at thousands of times per second to identify a user by his or her habitual typing rhythm patterns.

Biometrics and Security

With biometrics, “you know that the individual accessing secure areas or information is not

just an individual holding the proper credential, but is in fact the person who has been

granted access, and this improves security and provides an audit trail.

Biometrics and Security

Conclusion There are many emerging technologies in computer inputs and outputs that make the

Biometrics technology evolving so rapid in the market and its application and utilization is

endless!
