One of the major risks involved in using biometrics for identification and authentication over open public networks, is the danger that the electronic biometric token (for e.g. a fingerprint or iris) can be intercepted and replayed by an unauthorized party. Furthermore, it is possible to make an unauthorized copy of a biometric token, without the permission and knowledge of the real owner, and use that for unauthorized transactions. This can for e.g. happen when a fingerprint is 'lifted' from an object the owner has used, and a latex copy is made from this token [5].This paper reports on a system in development, called Biovault, which addresses precisely the problems mentioned above, and which may help to make biometric tokens much safer to use over open public networks, for specific application in electronic commerce. |
