ABSTRACT
Wouldn’t you love to replace password based access control to
avoid having to reset forgotten password and worry about the integrity of
your system? Wouldn’t you like to rest secure in comfort that your
healthcare system does not merely on your social security number as proof
of your identity for granting access to your medical records?
Because each of these questions is becoming more and more
important, access to a reliable personal identification is becoming
increasingly essential .Conventional method of identification based on
possession of ID cards or exclusive knowledge like a social security
number or a password are not all together reliable. ID cards can be lost
forged or misplaced; passwords can be forgotten or compromised. But a
face is undeniably connected to its owner. It cannot be borrowed stolen or
easily forged.
Face recognition technology may solve this problem since a
face is undeniably connected to its owner expect in the case of identical
twins. It’s nontransferable. The system can then compare scans to records
stored in a central or local database or even on a smart card.
