Secure Computation of Biometric Matching

چکیده
As biometric-based authentication is gaining popularity, the need to protect privacy of such data is widely recognized. Recently a large body of work has emerged on securing biometric data stored at a server that performs biometric-based authentication (such that the biometric data cannot be recovered by someone with legitimate access to the server or in case of break-in). While prior work concentrated on authentication, in this work we treat the problem of biometric identification, or matching, which is also of a significant importance. We present our solutions for iris matching for cases when a single and multiple servers are available for computation, and empirically validate our techniques on an database of iris codes.

Today biometric data propagate more heavily into our lives. With more ubiquitous use of such data, computations over biometrics become more prevalent as well. While it is well understood that privacy of biometric data must be protected, often computations over biometric data involve untrusted participants or servers, let it be a cross check between different agencies who are not permitted to sh...

The increasing availability and use of biometric data leads to situations when sensitive biometric data is to be handled by entities who may not be fully trusted or otherwise are not authorized to have full access to such data. This calls for mechanisms of provably protecting biometric data while still allowing the computation to take place. Our focus is on privacy-preserving matching of two fi...
