Abstract
Security? Yes, security in itself is the biggest concern today. From ancient time to present we have come a long way from “something you know” (e.g., password, Personal identification number- Knowledge based approach), to “something you carry” (e.g., physical key, ID card- token based approach) and to “something you are” (e.g., face, voice) [1]. All these methods of establishing the identity of the persons have their own advantages and limitation. But out of these three “something you are” is the latest, gaining popularity and used all over the world. This method is known as “Biometrics”, but this system is also having some pitfalls. In this paper we are trying to present the pitfalls in the biometric system.
