Abstract :
We propose a structured methodology following a full vulnerability analysis of the general biometric model outlined by Mansfield and Wayman (2002). Based on this analysis, a new multidimensional paradigm named the biometric architecture & system security (BASS) model is proposed, which adds comprehensive security and management layers to the existing biometric model. The BASS model is a structured methodology that guides firms towards employing a solid foundation for any biometric system through the emphasis of security practices at the module and systems level, as well as the standardization of policies and procedures for continued operations.
