Biometric Inaccuracies Project Team 9: Tanner Ellenberger and Grant Miller

Overview History ● Types of biometrics, how they work ● Overall effectiveness ● Risks/Downsides (problem) ● Known alternatives ● Our solution ●

History Biometrics used since 500 B.C by Babylonian merchants ● for transactions Bertillon System was used in mid 1800s to measure ● various body dimensions Henry System implemented in late 1800s to include ● fingerprints of inmates Biometrics we see today were not implemented until late ● 90s, early 2000’s

How Biometrics Work 1. Proper recording/scanning device records initial appropriate biometric input 2. System turns biometric input into storable data 3. User seeking access presents biometric input to device 4. Device compares new input to original stored input 5. If new input matches original stored input, access granted

Popular Types of Biometrics ● Fingerprint ● Retina ● Iris ● Facial ● Voice ● Signature

Effectiveness ● Convenient, easy to use ● Very unique ● Always with you ● Easy to implement

Risks/Downsides Cannot change your DNA if compromised ● Lack of privacy ● Users can be forced to use their biometric with physical force ● Can be manipulated ●

Alternatives ● Password/Passphrase ● Personal Device Check ● Two-Factor ● Two-Step ● Randomly Generated Codes

Solution AI.Lock ● User takes picture of unique object or scene (reference image) ● Must take picture of same object/scene for authorization (candidate image) ● Only stores a hash of the image ●

Conclusion ● Biometric History ● How biometrics work ● Types of biometrics ● Effectiveness of biometrics ● Risks of Biometrics ● Biometric Alternatives ● Our Solution
