Smart Card in Biometric Authentication
نویسنده
چکیده
Identification and authentication by individuals' biometric characteristics is becoming an accepted procedure that is slowly replacing the most popular identification procedure – passwords. Rapid progress of biometric technology and its expanded application brings new possibilities in identification process. The usage of biometric smart card in the process of identification and authentication is nothing new. What is new is that the process is expected to be used more in our environment. This paper presents basic characteristics of biometric identification, points out the specific qualities of using a smart card in biometric identification, reveals the requirements and open issues regarding the authentication process in general and the implementation of biometric smart card, and discusses possible areas where biometric identification could be put into practice.
