Introduction to Biometrics • Definition: methods of using the human body to identify or verify an individual. • Increases level of security for data security & access control. • Ex: Cell Phones, Computer Networks, ATMs • Higher level of security is necessary.
History of Biometrics • Branch of biology that deals with data statistics and all biometric information saved in a particular database. • Data embedded cards • Fingerprint scanning • Facial geometry analysis • Hand Dimensions
History Cont. • Iris Scanning • Retina Scanning • Handwriting: oldest type of biometric. • Effective • 2 types: Static & Dynamic
Schools Global use ID Cards Passports Fingerprinting Retina Scan Iris Scan Voice Authentication Facial Recognition Handwriting Military Use Current Applications
State of the Art Biometrics • Most Advanced or Up-to-Date • Rapidly Expanding • Biometric Passports • Doorkeeper 7.0 • Biometrics in Banks • More Secure Verification of Individual • ATMs and Smart Cards
Conclusion • Security upgraded with biometrics • Security is a top area on businesses agenda • Biometrics address problems of current security levels. • Reduces Theft (Identity) • Upgrade of security is necessary.
