As organizations
search for more secure authentication
methods for user access, e-commerce, and
other security applications, biometrics
is gaining increasing attention. But
should your company use biometrics? And,
if so, which ones should you use and how
do you choose them? There is no one best
biometric technology. Different
applications require different
biometrics. To select the right
biometric for your situation, you will
need to navigate through some complex
vendor products and keep an eye on
future developments in technology and
standards. Your options have never been
more diverse. After years of research
and development, vendors now have
several products to offer.
Some are
relatively immature, having only
recently become commercially available,
but even these can substantially improve
your company's information security
posture. We briefly describe some
emerging biometric technologies to help
guide your decision making. |
