General biometric systems are well known in public and systems based on
the fingerprint recognition belong, without question, to the most
familiar ones. Fingerprints have been used for identification and
authentication for a long time because their uniqueness and reliability
have been proven in everyday life. Nowadays, there are a great number
of such biometric systems based on fingerprint recognition on the
market. One group of them is used for forensic purposes (these are
called dactyloscopic systems and are used in tasks of person
identification). Another group of biometric systems represents the
topic of interest of this monography - access or verification systems. Both such systems and related basic biometric terms and processes are described in the first and second chapters. If
we try to combine a biometric (fingerprint) system with some
cryptographic system, we are confronted with the question, if there is
enough information entropy in the fingerprint. Some computations of the
similarity among fingerprints have already been published but they have
considered the matching of fingerprints. For cryptographic tasks, it is
more important to exploit the information strength hidden in
fingerprint papillary line structures. The answer to this question can
be found in the third chapter. Finally, if the information strength
is adequate to the cryptographic requirements, we can design a system,
which uses fingerprint technology as a biometric information input and
offers biometric keys to the cryptographic subsystem. The detailed
description of such Biometric Security System can be found in the
fourth chapter, where all processes needed for the computations and
processing are described. The Biometric Security System was implemented
and appropriate modules were tested. The test analyses and reports are
presented in the last, fifth, chapter. |
