What is biometrics? Whether you’re just curious about how biometrics can benefit society or you need to learn how to integrate biometrics with an existing security system in your organization, *Biometrics For Dummies* can help.
Here’s a friendly introduction to biometrics — the science of identifying humans based on unique physical characteristics. With the government’s use of biometrics — for example, biometric passport readers — and application of the technology for law enforcement, biometrics is growing more popular among security experts. *Biometrics For Dummies* explains biometric technology, explores biometrics policy and privacy issues with biometrics, and takes a look at where the science is heading. You’ll discover:
* How pattern recognition and fingerprint recognition are used
* The many vulnerabilities of biometric systems and how to guard against them
* How various countries are handling the privacy issues and what can be done to protect citizens’ privacy
* How a scan of the palm, veins in the hand, and sonar imagery establish identity
* What it takes to fully authenticate a signature
* How gait, speech, linguistic analysis, and other types of biometric identification come into play
* The criteria for setting up an implementation plan
* How to use authentication, authorization, and access principles

Written by a pair of security experts, *Biometrics For Dummies* gives you the basics in an easy-to-understand format that doesn’t scrimp on substance. You’ll get up to speed and enjoy getting there!
