Template Protection for Fingerprint Recognition System using Fuzzy Vault
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, fuzzy vault scheme is discussed for protection of templates in fingerprint recognition system. As fingerprint recognition system is most commonly used biometric, where minutiae points are stored as templates. If attacker gets this database, fake finger or artificial image can be created. Once biometric is compromised, it cannot be reused. This shows importance of template security in biometric recognition system. Fuzzy vault scheme is used for template protection as it is more suitable for fingerprint recognition system. Fuzzy vault is used to conceal minutiae points and is order invariant. Index terms – Biometric encryption, Fingerprint recognition system, Fuzzy vault, Template protection.

Alignment-Free Fingerprint Cryptosystem Based On Multiple Fuzzy Vault and Minutia Local Structures
The popularity of biometrics and its widespread use introduces privacy risks. To mitigate these risks, solutions such as the helper-data system, fuzzy vault, fuzzy extractors, and cancelable biometrics were introduced, also known as the field of template protection. Fuzzy vault is a practical and promising scheme, which can protect biometric templates and perform secure key management simultane...
متن کاملSecurity Capacity of the Fuzzy Fingerprint Vault
We investigate the security of a privacy enhancing technique for fingerprint authentication known as fuzzy fingerprint vault. This technique is based on the fuzzy vault of Jules and Sudan, a scheme that allows error tolerant authentication, while preserving the privacy of the reference data. We explore if and under what circumstances a secure fuzzy fingerprint vault can be implemented. We deriv...

Security of stored templates is a critical issue in biometric systems because biometric templates are non-revocable. Fuzzy vault is a cryptographic framework that enables secure template storage by binding the template with a uniformly random key. Though the fuzzy vault framework has proven security properties, it does not provide privacy-enhancing features such as revocability and protection a...

متن کاملFingerprint Template Protection Using Fuzzy Vault
Biometric-based authentication can provide strong security guarantee about the identity of users. However, security of biometric data is particularly important as the compromise of the data will be permanent. To protect the biometric data, we need to store it in a non–invertible transformed version. Thus, even if the transformed version is compromised, the actual biometric data remains safe. In...
