 What is Biometric?
 Types of Biometric technologies & its
application.
 What is next?

5. Lesson Objectives
 After completing this lesson you will
be able to:
 have an knowledge overview about
Biometric Technologies.
 identify usage and main features of
different types of Biometric
Technologies.

6. Most common levels of authentication
• something you know, like a password, PIN,
or code.
• something you have, like a swipe card, smart
card, token, or key.
• something you are, which is biometrics.

7. What is Biometric?
Definition: Biometrics are person's
identification based on his/her
physiological or behavioral
characteristics.

8. Types of Biometrics?
- Based on Physiological characters
- Face recognition,
- Fingerprint
- Hand Geomatry
- Iris
- Veins

9. Types of Biometrics?
- Based on Behavioral characters
- Voice recognition
- Signature recognition
- Keystroke dynamics recognition

10. Its applications?
- Where do you think this technology can be used?
- Banking (electronic funds transfer, ATM security, Internet
commerce, credit card transactions)
- Physical access control (airport)
- Information system security (access to databases via login)
- Customs and immigration (identification based on hand
geometry)
- PC access control
- Building access control
- …….
