چکیده
Need for information security and privacy is increasing in recent times. Since several valuable data and files are stored in an organization server system and moreover personal information are being shared in WWW, the need for providing security and permitting only the authorized user is becoming indispensable. For this purpose, biometric authentication is used in several applications and it is progressively acquiring more attention in the field of research. Several biometrics like fingerprint, iris, retina, etc., are used in rendering security to the information or key. The generation of cryptographic key from biometrics is used generally to secure the system. On the other hand, the storage and security for the biometric templates and the encryption keys are of a major concern. The effectiveness and the flexibility of the cryptographic key generation schemes make it suitable for integrating it with the biometric features (Biometric cryptosystems). Security is one of the major concerns in the present world and there is need for many researches to deal with the better biometrics based cryptographic key generation schemes. In this survey, discussed the several biometrics based cryptographic key generation schemes which will show the way for development of better security schemes using biometrics and cryptography.
