n BiometBiometrics overviewrics overview Biometrics is an automated method of recognizing a person based on physical or behavioral characteristics. Examples of human traits and behaviors used in biometrics include fingerprint, voice, face, retina, iris, handwriting, and hand geometry. There are two key functions offered by a biometric system. One is identification, a one-to-many matching process, in which a biometric sample is compared against a database of stored users. The other is verification, a one-to-one matching process, in which the biometric system will verify whether or not an individual’s biometric sample matches a previously enrolled data. Using biometrics for identifying and authenticating human beings offers some unique advantages over traditional and current methods. Only biometrics authentication is based on the identification of an intrinsic part of a human being. Tokens, such as smart cards, magnetic stripe cards, and physical keys, can be lost, stolen, duplicated, or left at home. Passwords can be forgotten, shared, or unintentionally observed by a third party. On the other hand, biometrics technology provides both security and convenience. With an increasing reliance on online technology and other shared resources, the information age is quickly revolutionizing the way transactions are completed. Everyday actions are increasingly being handled electronically, and this growth in electronic transactions has resulted in greater demands for fast and accurate user identification and authentication methods. Biometrics technology is the way to achieve fast and convenient authentication with a high level of accuracy.
n Advantages of using fingerprintsAdvantages of using fingerprints The advantages of using a fingerprint are its acceptance, convenience, and reliability. It takes little time and effort to acquire one’s fingerprint with a fingerprint identification device. Ancient officials used thumbprints to seal documents over two thousand years ago, and law enforcement agencies have been using fingerprint identification since the late 1800s. Many studies have also found that using fingerprints as an identification source is the least intrusive of all biometrics techniques. In addition, there is a great amount of scientific data supporting the idea that no two fingerprints are alike. n SecuGen companySecuGen company SecuGen develops and markets biometrics authentication solutions that enable individuals or groups to protect their valuable resources.
