ABSTRACT:
In recent years there has been a wealth of information amassed in the area of biological sciences and this necessitated the development of altogether new area called “BIO METRICS”. Biometrics requires an unambiguous understanding of modern bio chemistry, micro biology, bio and electrical technology by use of state of art techniques and tools developed by and employed in computer science, information technology and mathematics
Biometrics are best defined as measurable physiological and / or behavioral characteristics that can be utilized to verify the identity of an individual. They are of interest in any area where it is important to verify the
INTRODUCTION
Biometrics is the technique of using unique, non-transferable, physical characteristics, such as fingerprints, to gain entry for personal identification. This replaces pin codes and passwords, which can be forgotten, lost or stolen. Biometric IDs cannot be transferred
true identity of an individual. Initially, these techniques were employed primarily in specialist high security applications, however we are now seeing their use and proposed use in a much broader range of public facing situations
WHAT IS BIOMETRICS
The security field uses three different types of authentication:
something you know—a password, PIN, or piece of personal information (such as your mother's maiden name);
something you have—a card key, smart card, or token (like a Secured card); and/or
Something you are—a biometric.
Biometrics involve directly the human being for the identification or verification. Traditionally many security system employ the verification technique rather than the identification which is the main aim of biometrics. Although it doesn’t totally remove the pin/password but with that tool it provide a very tight security system.
