In recent years, biometrics is being used more and more in security applications. This fact has led suppliers and researchers to analyze biometric algorithms powers and vulnerabilities, as to improve the feasibility of this technology. Nevertheless, as many authors claim, biometric performance also depends on other factors such as usability and/or user acceptance, which can influence significantly...
Biometrics is more and more used in many security applications. This fact has led suppliers and researches to analyze biometric algorithms power and vulnerabilities, as to improve the feasibility of this technology. Nevertheless, as many authors claim, biometric performance does also depend on other factors such as usability and/or user acceptance, which can influence significantly their performance...
Biometrics is a new technology that provides a secure identification, which is being used more and more these days. However, sensors and biometric systems are usually only tested by their own suppliers, and rarely an independent evaluation of these products is carried out. Also, when evaluating a biometric system/device, many factors that can affect its performance, are not even considered. This is...
We present here a report on a new performance evaluation system for biometric systems, which is secure, automatic and remote. This system will provide developers in biometrics to progress in their works, avoiding problems with data protection policies related to testing, but without compromising the privacy of testing subjects. Biometric testing needs personal data to be recorded and used. Therefore...
Nowadays biometrics is being used in many applications where security is required. This fact causes that new threatens have appeared and that the number of attempts to break biometric systems has increased. From all potential attacks, those involving damage or thefts to users are the most worrying. Most of them could be avoided if acquisition sensors would have suitable approaches for aliveness detection...
For improving interoperability and gaining in many more benefits, standard interfaces for connecting modules in Information Technology (IT) are a need. Biometrics is not different from other IT fields. In fact in Biometrics those interfaces are needed at different levels: applications, data interchange, processing modules or sensors. Standardization bodies have already published standards related...
