Advantages of Biometrics :
* Increase security - Provide a convenient and low-cost additional tier of security.
* Reduce fraud by employing hard-to-forge technologies and materials. For e.g.Minimise the opportunity for ID fraud, buddy punching.
* Eliminate problems caused by lost IDs or forgotten passwords by using physiological attributes. For e.g. Prevent unauthorised use of lost, stolen or "borrowed" ID cards.
* Reduce password administration costs.
* Replace hard-to-remember passwords which may be shared or observed.
* Integrate a wide range of biometric solutions and technologies, customer applications and databases into a robust and scalable control solution for facility and network access
* Make it possible, automatically, to know WHO did WHAT, WHERE and WHEN!
* Offer significant cost savings or increasing ROI in areas such as Loss Prevention or Time & Attendance.
* Unequivocally link an individual to a transaction or event.

Biometrics are helpful tools for security and identity verification. They are especially useful to establish the identity where a person might be stranger to the other, for example huge databases like banks. Biometrics identify on the basis of features unique to an individual, like signature, finger print, iris etc. These are difficult to forge. Biometrics used in home doors do not require carrying a key, or the fear of the key getting stolen. Biometrics are also used to identify criminals and determine their identity.
Applications of biometrics are broadly classfied into three categories: 1. Forensic Applications; 2. Government Applications and 3. Commercial Applicatuions
