This document summarizes biometrics and its hacking. It begins with an introduction to biometrics and how it connects to computers for authentication purposes. It then discusses various biometric parameters and methods of how biometric systems work. The document outlines current applications of biometrics and the future of the field. It notes that while biometrics has advantages for security, it also has flaws that can be hacked, such as creating fake fingerprints or exploiting how templates are stored. However, the conclusion maintains that biometrics still offer strong security when used as part of a full security system.

- 31. Hacking from the another point of view • In another test of biometric security, an Australian National University student was able to hack through the device using the information stored within the system itself. • Chris Hill worked on discovering the way the system stored the template information and then created images that had enough similar “features” of the desired fingerprint to trick the device. • He said, “Really all I had to do was crack the code of the template, so the images I created that were accepted by the security system did not even look like thumbprints they just displayed the characteristics required by the computer program.”
- 32. Major Issues • Other issues needing discussion are: What happens when the part of the body getting validated is somehow damaged, such as a finger getting badly burned or deeply cut Or if someone does manage to create a fake fingerprint from your finger, how is that issue resolved, since a finger can’t be easily changed like a password can?
- 33. CONCLUSION Biometric devices have flaws, but so does every other security hardware and software solution. Biometric security measures offer such a strong level of security, that they cannot be thrown out or ignored simply because a few flaws have been discovered. They need to be incorporated into an organization’s already strong defence in depth. Biometrics, especially in conjunction with passwords or passcards, offers the level of security that we need at this stage in the development of information security…
