person's identity. These biometric traits can include fingerprints, facial recognition,
iris recognition, voice recognition, and more. The use of multiple biometric traits can
improve the accuracy and reliability of the identification or verification process.
Biometric systems, which use physical or behavioral characteristics to identify individuals, can
raise security and privacy concerns. One issue is the potential for false positives or false
negatives, which can occur when the system incorrectly matches or fails to match a person's
biometric data. Another concern is the possibility of biometric data being stolen or misused,
either through hacking or through the mishandling of data by those with access to it.
Additionally, there are concerns about the potential for biometric data to be used for mass
surveillance or to infringe on individual privacy rights. To address these issues, it is important
for biometric systems to be designed with strong security and privacy protections in place,
and for organizations that use such systems to have clear policies in place for how data is
collected, stored, and used.
1. False positives and false negatives: This occurs when the system incorrectly
matches or fails to match a person's biometric data.
2. Data breaches and hacking: Biometric data can be stolen or misused if the
system is not properly secured.
3. Spoofing and replay attacks: An attacker can use a fake biometric sample,
such as a photograph or a recording of a person's voice, to gain unauthorized
access.
4. Privacy invasion: Biometric data is unique to an individual and can be used to
track their movements and activities, which can be a concern for privacy.
1. Data collection and storage: There can be concerns about how biometric data
is collected, stored, and used, and who has access to it.
2. Data sharing and third-party access: Biometric data may be shared with third
parties without the individual's knowledge or consent.
3. Profiling and discrimination: Biometric systems can be used to profile
individuals based on their physical or behavioral characteristics, which can
lead to discrimination.
4. Lack of transparency and accountability: There may be a lack of transparency
and accountability in how biometric systems are used and data is handled.
