  • Abstract
    Data security is one of the major concerns in today´s scenario. However, due to availability of information related to networks and free software, hackers can easily hack into different computers without even having much in-depth knowledge of the network architecture. It is very hard to protect our valuable data from others and it is impossible to restrict hackers by installing firewalls and other security software. As software is always having some kind of weak points, which can be exploited by technically equipped people, The solution to this problem is by securing the hardware. In hardwired security, we are proposing a hardware control unit attached with motherboard, due to which we can give permission to different users of that computer according to access rights. The users are identified using smart-metric finger print identification algorithm, it require multiple fingerprints in authentication which prevents the re-use of the fingerprint. It also decreases the probability of successful reproduction of phony fingers which will provide a new level of data security.
