Biometric authentication methods are being increasingly used for many types of
applications. Since such methods necessitate humans to interact with a device, effective …

We propose here a novel system for protecting fingerprint privacy by combining two different
fingerprints into a new identity. In the enrollment, two fingerprints are captured from two …

In bio-cryptography, biometric traits are replacing traditional passwords for secure exchange
of cryptographic keys. The Fuzzy Vault (FV) scheme has been successfully employed to …

In this study, a robust wavelet‐based fingerprint image watermarking scheme using an
efficient just perceptual weighting (JPW) model has been proposed. The JPW model exploits …

Cryptography has been widely accepted for security and partly for privacy control as
discovered from past works. However, many of these works did not provide a way to manage …

This book deals with" crypto-biometrics", a relatively new and multi-disciplinary area of
research (started in 1998). Combining biometrics and cryptography provides multiple …

Biometric recognition has been proven to offer a reliable solution to authenticate the identity
of the legitimate user. Because of the inherent nature of biometrics, which involves the …

Remote user authentication schemes using smart cards provide solutions for securing user
authentication. The schemes rely on passwords or biometric or both, which fall apart if the …

Fingerprint recognition belongs to one of the most often used biometric technologies world‐-
wide. It is believed that fingerprints could be used for the recognition of a person in nearly …

With the widespread use of biometrics recognition systems, it is of paramount importance to
protect the privacy of biometrics. In this paper, we propose to protect the fingerprint privacy …
