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.

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.

What is Biometric?

Definition: Biometrics are person's identification based on his/her physiological or behavioral characteristics.

"something that you are"

Types of Biometrics?

- Based on Physiological characters- Face recognition,- Fingerprint- Hand Geomatry- Iris - Veins

Types of Biometrics?

- Based on Behavioral characters- Voice recognition- Signature recognition- Keystroke dynamics recognition

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- …….

Summary
