Image and video forensics have emerged to complement classical cryptographic techniques and active media security techniques, in application cases where these passive technologies can offer advantages to the more established methodologies. This projects aims to apply image forensic techniques in the context of fingerprint and iris biometric systems, by taking care of (1) the specific nature of biometric sensors and (2) the specific nature of biometric sample data. In particular, questions of biometric sensor authentication, biometric sample data integrity verification, and biometric sensor ageing will be covered. We will contribute to biometric system accuracy, reliability, and security with the results of this project.
Biometric Sensor Forensics (FWF project P26630) is a project on using media forensics techniques to enhance biometric systems security. Image and video forensics have emerged to complement classical cryptographic techniques and active media security techniques, in application cases where these passive technologies can offer advantages to the more established methodologies. This projects aims to apply and adapt image forensic techniques ino the context of fingerprint, iris, and vein-based biometric recognition systems, by taking care of (1) the specific nature of biometric sensors and (2) the specific nature of biometric sample data. In particular, questions of biometric sensor authentication (i.e. has the correct sensor acquired a sample data in question), biometric sample authenticity (i.e. has the sample been acquired from a living subject), and biometric sensor ageing have been covered. We have mainly contributed to biometric system accuracy, reliability, and security with the results of this project.
