چکیده
Biometrics-based authentication has the potential to eliminate illegal key exchange problem associated with traditional cryptosystems. In this paper, we explore the utilization of a fingerprint minutiae line based representation scheme in a new cryptographic construct called fuzzy vault. Minutiae variability is quantified for a fingerprint database marked by a human expert.

Template Protection for Fingerprint Recognition System using Fuzzy Vault
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 securit...
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...
متن کاملFeature Distribution of the Fingerprint Template Generated by the Geometric Hashing-Based Fuzzy Vault
Recently, a cryptographic construct, called fuzzy vault, has been proposed for crypto-biometric systems, and some implementations for fingerprint have been reported to protect the stored fingerprint template by hiding the fingerprint features, i.e., adding “chaff” minutiae into the original minutiae set. Also, solutions to the most challenging issue in applying the fuzzy vault to fingerprint(i....
متن کاملSecurity analysis for fingerprint fuzzy vaults
In this work we place some of the traditional biometrics work on fingerprint verification via the fuzzy vault scheme within a cryptographic framework. We show that the breaking of a fuzzy vault leads to decoding of Reed-Solomon codes from random errors, which has been proposed as a hard problem in the cryptography community. We provide a security parameter for the fuzzy vault in terms of the de...
متن کاملAutomatic Alignment of Fingerprint Features for Fuzzy Fingerprint Vault
Biometrics-based user authentication has several advantages over traditional password-based systems for standalone authentication applications. This is also true for new authentication architectures known as crypto-biometric systems, where cryptography and biometrics are merged to achieve high security and user convenience at the same time. Recently, a cryptographic construct, called fuzzy vaul...
