The document discusses biometric authentication and how it works. Biometrics refers to using measurable physical characteristics to verify identity. A biometric system first collects enrollment data from a user's fingerprint, face, iris, etc. It then compares subsequent scans to those on file to verify the user's identity. Fingerprint scanning systems in particular extract characteristic patterns from fingerprint images and convert them into encrypted codes for matching, without saving the actual fingerprint images. Biometric identification is advantageous over traditional methods like passwords because physical traits are nearly impossible to forget, share, or forge.

Biometrics: Biometric is combination of two words. The term "biometrics" is derived from the Greek words bio (life) and metric (to measure). For our use, biometrics refers to authentication techniques that rely on measurable physical characteristics that can be automatically checked. Some Examples of Different Biometrics Face Fingerprint Voice Palm Print Hand Geometry Iris Retina Scan Voice DNA Keystroke How does a biometric system work? As we know biometric system is used to identify or verify peoples identity, but first we must collect their biometric data. This system works in two steps. First, it must process the collection of your biometric identity, your fingertip or voice for example. This is known as enrolment. The second step is when the system checks your fingertip in the databases to verify or identify your identity. Mechanism of Fingerprint biometric:
A fingerprint scanner system has two basic jobs -- it needs to get an image of your finger, and it needs to determine whether the pattern of ridges in this image matches the pattern of ridges in pre-scanned images Only specific characteristics, which are unique to every fingerprint, are filtered and saved as an encrypted biometric key or mathematical representation. No image of a fingerprint is ever saved, only a series of numbers (a binary code), which is used for verification. The algorithm cannot be reconverted to an image, so no one can duplicate your What Good it does to you? We know that our current security systems are based on Passwords, or ID/swap cards. The problem with these security system is that a card can be lost, a pin/password can be forgotten. If a pin or password is lost or forgotten it can be changed and reissued but a biometric identification cannot because it is based on the identification of individual. Ones individual identification remains along with him from to birth to death. Top Advantages of Biometric: There are several ways a system can verify that somebody is who they say they are. Most systems are looking for one or more of the following: What You Have. What You Know. Who You Are. To get pass through what you have system, you need to have some sort of token, such as an identity card with a magnetic strip. Then a what you know section requires you to enter a password or a PIN number. A who you are is actually looking for physical evidence that you are who you say you are a specific person.
Who you are systems like fingerprint have number of advantages over other systems. Fingerprints are much harder to fake than identity cards. You cant guess a fingerprint. You cant forget your fingerprints like you can forget a password.
