Biometric Authentication Systems
Biometric authentication systems use unique physical characteristics, such as fingerprints, facial recognition, iris patterns, or voiceprints, to verify a person's identity. These systems analyze these traits because they are difficult to replicate, making them more secure than traditional passwords or PINs. When you scan your fingerprint or face, the system compares it to stored data to determine if you are who you claim to be. Biometric authentication is increasingly used in smartphones, security systems, and access controls, enhancing security while providing a convenient way to access devices and information.
