Biometric Data Security

Biometric data security refers to the protection of unique personal traits, such as fingerprints, facial recognition, and iris scans, used for identification. This technology enhances security by ensuring that only individuals with matching biometric features can access systems or information. However, because biometric data is permanent and cannot be changed like a password, it must be stored and transmitted securely to prevent unauthorized access. Effective biometric security measures include encryption, secure storage, and robust access controls, ensuring that individuals’ sensitive information remains safe from theft or misuse.
