10. 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.
12. Biometrics and IT security
Authentication 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 us
ing the
physiological and behavioural characteristics; "negativ
e 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
13. 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.
14. 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
Facial Recognition Facial
16. 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.
17. 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.
18. 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).
21. 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.
23. Conclusion
ď‚— 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!
 · Biometrics offers unparalleled ability to quickly and accurately capture real-

Time, labour data and provide a non-repudiated audit trail.
Biometrics has undergone intense scrutiny and the results are in - when
Properly deployed, biometrics work well and are safe, secure, and accurate.
