Cancelable Key-Based Fingerprint Templates, Russell Ang, Reihaneh Safavi-Naini, Luke F. Mcaven
Dr Luke McAven
Biometric based authentication can provide strong security guarantee about the identity of users. Security of biometric data is particularly important as compromise of the data will be permanent. Cancelable biometrics store a non-invertible transformed version of the biometric data and so if the storage is compromised the biometric data remains safe. Cancelable biometrics also provide a higher level of privacy by allowing many templates for the same biometric data and hence non-linkability of user's data stored in different databases. We define how to measure the success of a particular transformation and matching algorithm for fingerprints. We consider a key-dependent geometric …
The Legal, Social And Ethical Controversy Of The Collection And Storage Of Fingerprint Profiles And Dna Samples In Forensic Science, K. Michael
Associate Professor Katina Michael
The collection and storage of fingerprint profiles and DNA samples in the field of forensic science for non-violent crimes is highly controversial. While biometric techniques such as fingerprinting have been used in law enforcement since the early 1900s, DNA presents a more invasive and contentious technique as most sampling is of an intimate nature (e.g. buccal swab). A fingerprint is a pattern residing on the surface of the skin while a DNA sample needs to be extracted in the vast majority of cases (e.g. at times extraction even implying the breaking of the skin). This paper aims to balance the …
