THRIVE: Threshold Homomorphic encryption based secure and privacy preserving bIometric VErification system
In this paper, we propose a new biometric verification and template
protection system which we call the THRIVE system. The system includes novel
enrollment and authentication protocols based on threshold homomorphic
cryptosystem where the private key is shared between a user and the verifier.
In the THRIVE system, only encrypted binary biometric templates are stored in
the database and verification is performed via homomorphically randomized
templates, thus, original templates are never revealed during the
authentication stage. The THRIVE system is designed for the malicious model
where the cheating party may arbitrarily deviate from the protocol
specification. Since threshold homomorphic encryption scheme is used, a
malicious database owner cannot perform decryption on encrypted templates of
the users in the database. Therefore, security of the THRIVE system is enhanced
using a two-factor authentication scheme involving the user's private key and
the biometric data. We prove security and privacy preservation capability of
the proposed system in the simulation-based model with no assumption. The
proposed system is suitable for applications where the user does not want to
reveal her biometrics to the verifier in plain form but she needs to proof her
physical presence by using biometrics. The system can be used with any
biometric modality and biometric feature extraction scheme whose output
templates can be binarized. The overall connection time for the proposed THRIVE
system is estimated to be 336 ms on average for 256-bit biohash vectors on a
desktop PC running with quad-core 3.2 GHz CPUs at 10 Mbit/s up/down link
connection speed. Consequently, the proposed system can be efficiently used in
real life applications

A schema for cryptographic keys generation using hybrid biometrics
Biometric identifiers refer to unique physical properties or behavioural attributes of individuals. Some of the well known biometric identifiers are voice, finger prints, retina or iris, facial structure etc. In our daily interaction with others directly or indirectly, we implicitly use biometrics to know, distinguish and trust people. Biometric identifiers represent the concept of "who a person is" by gathering vital characteristics that don't correspond to any other person. The human brain to some extent is able to ascertain disparities or variation in certain physical attributes and yet verify the authenticity of a person. But this is difficult to be implemented in electronic systems due to the intense requirements of artificial decision making and hard-coded logic.
This paper examines the possibility of using a combination of biometric attributes to overcome common problems in having a single biometric scheme for authentication. It also investigates possible schemes and features to deal with variations in Biometric attributes. The material presented is related to ongoing research by the Computer Communications Research Group at Leeds Metropolitan University. We use this paper as a starting step and as a plan for advanced research. It offers ideas and proposition for implementing hybrid biometrics in conjunction with cryptography. This is work in progress and is in a very preliminary stage
A New Biometric Template Protection using Random Orthonormal Projection and Fuzzy Commitment
Biometric template protection is one of most essential parts in putting a
biometric-based authentication system into practice. There have been many
researches proposing different solutions to secure biometric templates of
users. They can be categorized into two approaches: feature transformation and
biometric cryptosystem. However, no one single template protection approach can
satisfy all the requirements of a secure biometric-based authentication system.
In this work, we will propose a novel hybrid biometric template protection
which takes benefits of both approaches while preventing their limitations. The
experiments demonstrate that the performance of the system can be maintained
with the support of a new random orthonormal project technique, which reduces
the computational complexity while preserving the accuracy. Meanwhile, the
security of biometric templates is guaranteed by employing fuzzy commitment
protocol.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figures, accepted for IMCOM 201
Two-Factor Biometric Identity Verification System for the Human-Machine System Integrated Deep Learning Model
The Human-Machine Identity Verification System based on Deep Learning offers a robust and automated approach to identity verification, leveraging the power of deep learning algorithms to enhance accuracy and security. This paper focused on the biometric-based authentical scheme with Biometric Recognition for the Huma-Machinary Identification System. The proposed model is stated as the Two-Factor Biometric Authentication Deep Learning (TBAuthDL). The proposed TBAuthDL model uses the iris and fingerprint biometric data for authentication. TBAuthDL uses the Weighted Hashing Cryptographic (WHC) model for the data security. The TBAuthDL model computes the hashing factors and biometric details of the person with WHC and updates to the TBAuthDL. Upon the verification of the details of the assessment is verified in the Human-Machinary identity. The simulation analysis of TBAuthDL model achieves a higher accuracy of 99% with a minimal error rate of 1% which is significantly higher than the existing techniques. The performance also minimizes the computation and processing time with reduced complexity
Integrated Biometric Template Security using Random Rectangular Hashing
Large centralized biometric databases, accessible over networks in real time are especially used for identification purposes. Multimodal biometric systems which are more robust and accurate in human identification require multiple templates storage of the same user analogous to individual biometric sources. This may raises concern about their usage and security when these stored templates are compromised since each person is believed to have a unique biometric trait. Unlike passwords, the biometric templates cannot be revoked and switch to another set of uncompromised identifiers when compromised. Therefore, fool-proof techniques satisfying the requirements of diversity, revocability, security and performance are required to protect stored templates such that both the security of the application and the users2019; privacy are not compromised by the impostor attacks. Thus, this paper proposes a template protection scheme coined as random rectangular hashing to strengthen the multimodal biometric system. The performance of the proposed template protection scheme is measured using the fingerprint FVC2004 and PolyU palmprint database
