What is biometrics?
Biometrics are automated methods of recognizing a person based on a physiological or behavioral characteristic. Among the features measured are face, fingerprints, hand geometry, handwriting, iris, retina, vein, and voice. Utilizing biometrics for personal authentication is considerably more accurate than conventional methods like passwords or PINs.
- Biometrics links the event to a particular individual (a password or token may be used by someone other than the authorized user).
- Biometrics is convenient (nothing to carry or remember).
- Biometrics is the ultimate in accuracy and efficiency. There are no consumables making biometrics a cost-effective solution.
- Unlike a password, PIN, or smart card, biometrics cannot be forgotten, misplaced, lost or stolen.
- While traditionally used in high security applications, biometrics is now gaining acceptance in mainstream consumer applications worldwide.
How does biometrics work?
Biometrics work by using our unique characteristics to identify us. Consider fingerprint-based identification. All fingerprints are unique, and that makes them ideal for personal digital identification. Each and every one of our ten fingerprints is unique, different from one another and from those of every other person. Even identical twins have unique fingerprints. Other biometric methodologies utilized to measure various other characteristics work using the same theory.
