TOPIC: BIOMETRIC MILITARY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Identified problems

 Difficulty in distinguishing military personnel and guest based on wearing typical

or casual outfits.

 Identifying an impostor or a spy within the military base.

 Spoofing attacks to impersonate a military personnel and defeat the biometric

authentication mechanism.

 Failure to enroll a user within the biometric database system.

 Liveness detection of the users biometric data such as fingerprints.

 Insecurity of military personal data and privacy concerns.

Solutions

 Use of facial features or patterns for the authentication or recognition of an

individuals identity. Most face recognition systems either use eigenfaces or local
feature analysis.
 To combat spoofing attacks, use different and multiple biometric technologies to
prevent identity theft such as use of iris and retina recognition
 External factors that influence the accuracy, such as sunlight and the quality and
cleanliness of the sensor should be considered.
 To combat military personnel data, design biometric interface that does not
synchronize personal data of the military personnel or guest unless the user
activates it.
 In a serious confidential scenario, usage of DNA matching pattern by
synchronizing users personal information within the DNA management database
with the biometric system for identification.
