• Are you one of those who hate punching passwords
  and wish there was something better to
  acknowledge your identity? How often have you
  lost your password count? As organizations strive
  to bring more security into their mode of
  operations, the employees continue to complain of
  the incessant alerts and warnings on the password
  changes and the number of characters you can
  have. Well, wouldnt it be smart if the
  management just switched to a biometric face
  recognition system. No hassles with the password
  and Pins. Just screen your face and your identity
  is established in 5 seconds flat!

• Why biometrics?
• Passwords are not a great tool for clumsy and
  fidgety individuals. Memory challenges often
  hamper the retention of the passwords especially
  when used to secure sensitive documents and
  assets. A combination containing the numbers,
  alpha-numeric characters, special characters and
  the length of the passwords are hard to remember
  and manage. As biometric authentication requires
  no such intervention with the keyboard or
  number pads, the chances of ID thefts is reduced
  to zero.

• Behavioral and Physical Attributes included in
  Biometrics
• Whether you are wearing a make-up or sporting a
  beard, the biometric face recognition system is
  smart enough to catch the true identity in the
  same time as your normal appearance. It also
  measures the degree of deviation of your captured
  image with the original stored template. It is
  capable of comparing the different behavioral
  traits with the biological traits as well.
• Common behavioral traits captured in the
  biometric face recognition system are
• o Twitching of facial features
• o Poking of nose
• o Rate of blinking of eyes
• o Rate of flaring of nose

• The biological traits detected by the biometrics
  sensors include
• o Distance between the lips
• o Eyebrow density
• o Hairline marker
• o Size of the ears
• o Unique marks like moles, cuts or scratches on
  the face
• o Chin line
• o Dental structure
• o Stubble density
• High-end features included in the biometrics
  sensors
• In recent times, popular biometric systems have
  begun to use sophisticated technologies that can
  measure tiniest of details or changes made to the
  face. Some of them are

6

• - Surgical or cosmetic changed made to the face
• - Density of sweat pores
• - Change in eye color or hair color
• - Detection of face from under the veil using
  templates
• - Detection of face covered with cap
• Recreating the face even if the image is captured
  at an angle or from the back using 3-D
  Imaging techniques
• Challenges with using Biometrics
• Like all technologies, the biometrics face
  recognition system has certain challenges that
  are being placed under corrective incubators for
  further assessment. Major limitations are
• - All captured images are compared with the
  available template. If the template is corrupt or
  is lost due to ID Theft, the biometric face
  recognition system is rendered useless till new
  templates are made available.
• - It requires an elaborate IT management and
  additional budget for installation, operation and
  expansion process.
• - Logistics is limited and can be used at
  specific locations only.
