Biometric
Security Features and our Stylish Glass Kiosks & Frames
What Is A
Biometric?
The security field uses three different types of
authentication:
- Something you know—a password, PIN, or piece of personal
information (such as your mother's maiden name);
- Something you have—a card key, smart card, or token (like a
SecurID card); and/or
- Something you are—a biometric.
Of these, a biometric is the most secure and convenient
authentication tool. It can't be borrowed, stolen, or forgotten,
and forging one is practically impossible. (Replacement part
surgery, by the way, is outside the scope of this article.)
Biometrics measure individuals' unique physical or behavioural
characteristics to recognize or authenticate their identity.
Common physical biometrics include fingerprints; hand or palm
geometry; and retina, iris, or facial characteristics.
Behavioural characters include signature, voice (which also has a
physical component), keystroke pattern, and gait. Of this class of
biometrics, technologies for signature and voice are the most
developed.
Fingerprints
A fingerprint looks at the patterns found on a fingertip.
There are a variety of approaches to fingerprint verification.
Some emulate the traditional police method of matching minutiae;
others use straight pattern-matching devices; and still others are
a bit more unique, including things like moiréfringe patterns and
ultrasonics. Some verification approaches can detect when a live
finger is presented; some cannot.
A greater variety of fingerprint devices is available than for any
other biometric. As the prices of these devices and processing
costs fall, using fingerprints for user verification is gaining
acceptance—despite the common-criminal stigma.
Fingerprint verification may be a good choice for in-house
systems, where you can give users adequate explanation and
training, and where the system operates in a controlled
environment. It is not surprising that the workstation access
application area seems to be based almost exclusively on
fingerprints, due to the relatively low cost, small size, and ease
of integration of fingerprint authentication devices.
