BIOMETRICS THE FUTURE OF SECURITY (ARE YOU SECURE YET?)

HOW AUTHENTICATION IS DONE? THE SECURITY FIELD USES THREE TYPES OF AUTHENTICATION: SOMETHING YOU KNOW- A PASSWORD,PIN OR PERSONAL INFORMATION. SOMETHING YOU HAVE - A CARD KEY, SMART CARD OR TOKEN. SOMETHING YOU ARE - A BIOMETRIC

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY BIOMETRICS? What the Dictionaries say is “Biometrics means - the statistical analysis of biological data” But in today's e-speak, “Biometrics means the precise measurement of some facet of a person's unique physical (or vocal) traits, digitizing that measurement, storing it in computer memory, and later comparing it against the same measurement when taken again later”.

DO BIOMETRIC SYSTEMS RESULT IN EXACT, 100% MATCHES?

HOW DO BIOMETRIC SYSTEMS DETERMINE WHETHER TWO TEMPLATES “MATCH”? DECISION MAKING PROCESS MATCHING SCORE THRESHOLD DECISION

CAN BIOMETRIC SECURITY LEVELS BE ADJUSTED FOR SPECIFIC TRANSACTIONS? DYNAMIC THRESHOLDING

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IDENTIFICATION AND VERIFICATION? WHICH IS BETTER?

WHAT ARE COMMON APPLICATIONS OF BIOMETRICS? PC/LAN LOGON APPLICATION LOGON SINGLE SIGN ON(SSO) TIME AND ATTENDANCE ACCESS CONTROL WEBSITE ACCOUNT ACCESS AND PURCHASING DOUBLE DIPPING VERIFICATION TO A TOKEN

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING BIOMETRIC SYSTEM? FOR EMPLOYERS: REDUCED COSTS- PASSWORD MAINTENANCE. REDUCED COSTS- NO BUDDY PUNCHING. INCREASED SECURITY- NO SHARED OR COMPROMIZED PASSWORDS. INCREASED SECURITY- DETER AND DETECT FRAUDULENT ACCOUNT ACCESS. INCREASED SECURITY- NO BADGE SHARING IN SECURE AREAS. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE- FAMILIARITY WITH ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING BIOMETRIC SYSTEM? FOR EMPLOYEES CONVIENIENCE- NO PASSWORD TO REMEMBER OR RESET. CONVIENIENCE- FASTER LOGIN. SECURITY- CONFEDENTIAL FILES CAN BE STORED SECURELY. NON REPUDIATION- BIOMETRICALLY TRANSCATIONS DIFFICULT TO REPUTE.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING BIOMETRIC SYSTEM? FOR CONSUMERS CONVENIENCE- NO PASSWORDS TO REMEMBER OR RESET. SECURITY- PERSONAL FILES, INCLUDING S CAN BE SECURE. SECURITY- ONLINE PURCHASE SAFER. PRIVACY- ABILITY TO TRANSACT ANONYMOUSLY.
