Biometric techniques, such as fingerprint verification, iris or face recognition, retina analysis
and hand‐written signature verification, are increasingly becoming basic elements of …

Authentication is a fundamental issue to any trust-oriented computing system and also a
critical part in many security protocols. Performing authentication is notoriously difficult …

Biometric systems provide various benefits over traditional pin-based authentication
systems. However, the issue of data privacy and theft is of great concern. To resolve these …

One of the critical steps in designing a secure biometric system is protecting the templates of
the users that are stored either in a central database or on smart cards. If a biometric …

Cancelable biometric templates are transformed versions of original biometric templates
used for authentication purposes. The transformation functions should fulfill the important …

The most emerging technology for people identification and authentication is biometrics. In
contrast with traditional recognition approaches, biometric authentication relies on who a …

Wide spread use of biometric based authentication implies the need to secure biometric
reference data. Various template protection schemes have been introduced to prevent …

As biometrics are gaining popularity, there is increased concern over the loss of privacy and
potential misuse of biometric data held in central repositories. The association of fingerprints …

A large portion of system breaches are caused by authentication failure, either during the
login process or in the post-authentication session; these failures are themselves related to …

The cancellable biometric transformations are designed to be computationally difficult to
obtain the original biometric data. This paper presents a cancellable multi-biometric …
