Біометричні Технології В Системах Автентифікації: Використання Та Перспективи

Abstract

Biometric technologies in authentication systems play a crucial role in the realm of information security and personal identification. The article is dedicated to exploring the modern possibilities of utilizing biometric methods for verifying identity in information systems. It delves into the pertinent issue of the modern world -ensuring a high level of security in information systems. The use of biometric technologies in authentication systems is one of the key directions for addressing this issue. These technologies are based on unique physiological or behavioral characteristics of an individual, such as fingerprints, facial recognition, iris scanning, voice data, gait data, palm prints, vein recognition, heart rhythm, and genetic data. The main advantages of using biometric technologies include high accuracy and reliability in identifying individuals, the absence of the possibility of loss or theft of an individual's identifier, as well as convenience for users themselves. These technologies allow for a significant enhancement in the security level of information systems, reduce costs associated with managing passwords and identifiers, and simplify the authentication process. However, it is worth noting the potential risks of using biometric technologies, such as the possibility of biometric data tampering, privacy and personal information protection issues, and the potential for false rejections during identification. The prospects of scientific research in the field of biometric technologies in authentication systems are quite extensive. The continuous development of technologies allows for the improvement of biometric methods, expanding the scope of their application, and integrating existing achievements with other technologies and innovations, such as artificial intelligence capabilities. It is crucial to continue research on protecting biometric data from possible attacks, leaks, and compromise. Developing standards and legislation regarding the use of biometric technologies is necessary to avoid potential conflicts concerning privacy and individual rights.
