The advancement of technology is currently showing no signs of settling down in the 21st century. However, the modernization of security systems with the help of human body parts, often called ‘biometrics.’ has aided in the maintenance of proper security to an organization or individuals. The thesis aims to give a dual study related to multibiometrics system, including a literature review of the transformation of biometric applications and their security over the years to protect an individual or an organization’s privacy and safety.
The theoretical part of this thesis provides a brief account of the history of biometric systems. The thesis also discusses the current application of biometric systems in different sectors such as the Military, Law, Healthcare. It also provides a broad understanding of different types of biometric systems and their identifiers. The areas of vulnerability of the system are well pointed out inside this thesis which also discusses the attack made at a different level in a system.
The qualitative method is used to collect information by using secondary data from different sources, including articles, journals, books, internet resources, magazines, websites, and research papers. The thesis also goes through a number of the available protocols for template protection schemes that have been presented by researchers.
The findings of this study include an analysis of the most common biometrics approaches, as well as their benefits and drawbacks. Moreover, the result of this thesis recommends using a multi-biometric system than a unimodal biometric system to maintain the privacy of individuals and organizations.
