What kind of device uses unique physical traits of the user to authenticate their access to a secure system or location?

What is the conclusion of Keystroke dynamics as a biometric for authentication?

It is behavioral biometric. It is used to describe how an individualaddresses the keys on the keyboard. As biometrics go, it has a great price to performance ratio, as it is software only, requiring no special hardware. Purely based on accuracy, it is slightly less accurate than low end fingerprint readers, when comparing crossover error rate.


What is the disadvantage of a fingerprint scanner?

Ignoring the problems that biometric devices often have of false negatives (i.e. the scanner doesn't recognise you because you didn't put your finger on it correctly), one problem with using any biometric device (such as a fingerprint scanner) is that if someone figures out a way to "spoof" (fool) the scanner, there is no way to change your fingerprint. For example, if my credit card is stolen I can cancel it. If my password is stolen, I can change it. If someone has my fingerprints, well, I guess there is nothing I can do to stop them from accessing whaterver system they unlock.


What is the significance of the biometric passport (bpp) and how does it enhance the security and efficiency of border control processes, particularly in relation to the use of machine-readable pp documents?

The biometric passport (bpp) is important because it includes biometric data, like fingerprints or facial recognition, which enhances security by making it harder to forge or steal. This technology improves border control processes by quickly verifying a traveler's identity, reducing wait times and increasing efficiency compared to traditional machine-readable passports.


What does Biometric device mean?

Bio- refers to biological. Metric - refers to measuring. Biometric MEASURES something biological. In the case of a computer, it can digitize fingerprints, retinal scan, voice analysis... just about anything that might identify you as being unique from others. Typically biometric devices are installed as a component of computer security, such as a fingerprint scan, a retina scan or a voice print. In the case of a fingerprint scan, one would need to press on the pad that detects your fingerprint, and if it doesn't match, the computer will not allow you to have access to the computer.

What is the biometric system?

Biometric system measures the unique bilogical characteristics to identify a person. For example, finger print is unique for each individual. So if a system is made to read and register the finger prints, every time when the finger print is read using reader, this will identify the person. This identification can be used for attendance, access control etc.Unlike smart card(which can be stolen or exchanged), biometric system increases the level of authenticity and hence security. Another uniquely identifiable part in human body is pupil of the eye.This is also used in application of high security.The eye scan done in the passport control in foreign countries (eg:DUBAI) is nothing but an application of biometric system.


What type of attack is able to forge a biometric sample?

A presentation attack is able to forge a biometric sample by presenting artificial or manipulated biometric data to a biometric system in an attempt to impersonate a legitimate user. This can include using masks, false fingerprints, or altered facial images to deceive the system into granting unauthorized access.
