3. What is Biometric? How it Works? Types.. Applications Advantages Risk Conclusion Bhaskar Machcha
4. “measurable physiological or behavioral trait that can be captured and subsequently compared with another instance at the time of verification”. Matching of finger prints, voice patterns, hand geometry, Iris & Retina Scans, vein patterns are physiological characteristics. Bhaskar Machcha
5. There is an enrollment process where in each new user is required to register on to the biometric system. A few samples are taken to measure the physical traits such as finger print or a retinal scan. An average is taken from these readings which is then used to produce a template. Bhaskar Machcha
6. A template is a very small amount of information when compared to the original measurement of the biometric and is nothing more than a collection of numbers which have no meaning except to the biometric system that produced them. Once the biometric data is collected it is encrypted and stored.

7. Finger Printing • measures the unique pattern of lines on a persons finger Bhaskar Machcha
8. Iris Scanning • measures the iris patter in the colored part of the eye Bhaskar Machcha
9. Retinal Scan • measures the blood vessel patterns in the back of the eye Bhaskar Machcha
10. Voice Recognition • measures the vocal characteristics of a person using a specific phrase Bhaskar Machcha
11.  Criminal identification  Prison security  Highly Secured Zones  Aviation security  Different Companies  Database access Bhaskar Machcha
12. The biggest advantage that biometrics can offer is security and convenience. A biometric cannot be transferred between individuals and represents a unique identifier. While passwords and PINs can be stolen and recreated. Templates are useless when stolen since they will work only with live sample for comparison. Bhaskar Machcha
13. The highly secure way of identifying users This identification of users though biometrics cannot be lost, stolen or forgotten Bhaskar Machcha
14. Generic attacks Presentation of a fake biometric (spoofing) Interception of biometric data between device and storage Bhaskar Machcha
15. Overriding the final decision to match the biometric data Dummy silicone fingers Check for livelyness is not in some systems Bhaskar Machcha
16. The Best tool for modern world Most Secure one Time Saving Strong Encryption.. Bhaskar Machcha
