4. • something you know, like a password, PIN,
or code.
• something you have, like a swipe card, smart
card etc.
• something you are, which is biometrics.
three main types of authentication
available today are:

5. What is a biometric?
Biometrics
•Is the term given to the use of
biological traits OR
behavioral characteristics
to identify an individual.

6. The Biometric importance
 The security is needed in every place.
 Eliminate the existing problems, Like
those which can be taken, stolen,
borrowed or even forgotten.

7. The Biometric importance (Cont.)
 Improves convenience, security, and privacy.
 The first and most critical link in the security
chain.

8. Biometrics History
 The term "biometrics" is derived from the Greek words
bio which means
(life)
and metric means
(to measure).

9. Biometrics History (Cont.)
 the first known example of biometrics in practice was a
form of finger printing being used in China in the 14th
century.

10. Biometrics History (Cont.)
 In the 1890s, 'Bertillonage', created a method of bodily
measurement with the criminals who repeated the
crimes with different names and looks.

11. Biometrics History (Cont.)
 After this, finger printing, which was developed
by Richard Edward Henry of Scotland Yard.

12. Physical Characteristics

13. Fingerprint Recognition:
 Fingerprint Recognition is the identification by
using patterns of friction ridges and valleys on
an individual's fingertips which are unique to
that individual.

14. Fingerprints being scanned

15. Latent detection

16. Database
Fingerprint Recognition steps:

17. Face Recognition:
 Face recognition is scanning a persons face and
matching it with a library of known faces.

18. Face recognition process:
Database
Input face
image Extraction of
face image
Extraction of
face features
Positive
negative

19. Signature Identification:
 Signature identification: is the analyses of the
way a user signs his or her name.

20. •the angle at which the pen is held,
•the number of times the pen is lifted,
•the time it takes to write the entire signature,
the pressure exerted by the person while signing,
Signature Verification Process (Cont.)
Biometric
trait

21. Signature Verification Process
Database
Profile

22. Iris Identification:
 The iris is the colored ring of textured tissue
that surrounds the pupil of the eye.

23. Iris Identification Steps:
Database
Input of face
image
Detection of
eye regions
Put iris in focus
Recognition of
iris pattern
accept
reject

24. Veins Recognition:
 Venial Recognition: A system for Identification using
a person’s unique vein patterns.
Veins as a biometrics tool involve the measurement
of the blood vessels on the back of your hand.

25. Vein Recognition System:
Database
Input of palm
picture
The output
picture
Generate veins
structure
match
Not match

26. Behavioral Characteristics

27. Voice Recognition:
 Voice Recognition: is the Identification using
the acoustic features of speech that have been
found to differ between individuals.

28. Voice Identification System
Construct voice reference
template
Database

29. Applications of Biometric

30. Applications of Biometric
 Access control :
• Disney World (fingerprint scanner).

31. Applications of Biometric (Cont.)
 Time and attendance management
• Hospitals

32. Other Applications
 Airports:
• Airport (iris recognition)
 ATMs:
• (face recognition)

33. Other Applications (Cont.)
• Fujitsu has developed a mouse that can verify a
person's identity by recognizing his pattern of
blood veins.

34. Advantages of biometrics
1. Uniqueness
2. Time security
3. Reduce Fraud
4. No Forgotten Password
5. Accuracy
6. Accountability

35. Disadvantages of Biometrics
1. costly.
2. Facial imaging can also hinder accurate
identifications.
3. Missing body part problem.

36. Disadvantages of Biometrics
(Cont.)
4. False acceptances and rejections.
5. The amount of comfort.
6. The scanning of eye is fearful.
7. The nervousness that people feel about the
scanners identification.

37. Future Prospects
Biometry is one of the most promising and life-altering
technologies in existence today. It is all set to
change the way we live in the future. Some of the
emerging biometrics technologies in the near
future are:
1. Ear shape identification.
2. Body odor identification.
3. Body salinity identification.
4. EEG Fingerprint
5. DNA matching

38. Conclusion
Not perfect yet.
Successful applications.
Decreasing costs and increasing convenience.
Increasing both privacy and identity security.
The field of biometrics is evolving.
Benefit from this technology .
