Abstract :
Biometric security is a rapidly growing field concerning the use of unique identifiers in the human body for access control and access management. This survey paper will outline the history of biometric security, detail some of the common techniques used for identification, and discuss the reliability and fail rates of these systems. During the course of our research we found that biometric security systems are poised to become the standard method of identification and authorization.
