Fingerprint Fuzzy Vault: A Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
--This paper is a brief review of fuzzy vault which is a biometric template security technique. The advent of technology over the last decade has established biometric identification as an electronic equivalent to physical verification. Biometric traits offer a reliable solution to the problem of user authentication in identity management systems. Biometric based authentication has more advantage over traditional method such as password due to their uniqueness and required physical attendance at the time of authentication. But there are increasing concerns about the security and privacy of biometric technology. Fingerprint Identification is the most commonly used in biometric systems and fuzzy vault is a new technique to secure the template. The aim of this paper is to review all the important developments in fuzzy vault till. Keywords---Biometric systems, template security, fingerprint verification system, fuzzy vault, chaff generation

Security Enhancement Techniques of The Fuzzy Vault: A Review
Security of a biometric system is of paramount importance considering increased commercial use for allowing access to sensitive areas. In this context protection of stored biometric templates is of particular interest as these templates are irrevocable once leaked. Fuzzy vault has emerged as a novel cryptographic construct for the protection of biometric templates. But like every other techniqu...
متن کاملTemplate 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...
