오늘날 네트워크의 급속한 발전에 더불어 정보화의 가속화는 보안 문제가 크게 부각하고 있다. 이에 마그네틱 카드, IC 카드 등을 이용하여 개인을 식별하는 다양한 보안 시스템들이 개발되고 있으나 분실, 복사, 고의적 양도에 의한 부정사용 등의 문제로 인해 그 해결책이 되지 않고 있으며 이에 대한 해결책으로 생체인식(Biometrics)을 이용한 개인식별 시스템[1]이 제안되어 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문은 기존의 생체인식 시스템 중 가장 활발하게 활용되고 있는 지문인식 시스템이 가지고 있는 환경적인 요소나 물리적 요소에 의한 인식률 저하를 보안할 수 있는 시스템을 새롭게 제안한다. 지문인식은 사용의 편리함과 저가의 초기 투자비용, 그리고 소형화의 가능으로 생체인식 중에서 실생활에 사용되기 가장 적합한 기법으로 여겨져 다양한 응용 범위에 널려 사용되고 있다. 따라서, 제안 시스템은 기존의 지문인식 시스템을 기반으로 하여 손가락에서 추가적인 생체정보를 이용함으로써 지문인식 시스템이 갖은 단점을 보안하면서 인식률 향상과 효율적인 활용이 가능한 시스템을 제안한다.

e-Passport system is new type of emigration and immigration control system and it is a research to introduce the e-Passport Authentication Protocol with Improved Efficiency is lively proceeded over the entire world. The e-Passport's chip has a biometric information and personal identification information, Radio Frequency Identification(RFID) technology is used for communication with the Inspection System(IS). However, the feature of the RFID system may bring about various security threats such as eavesdropping, data forgeries, data alternation, cloning, biometric data-leakage. Therefore, in this paper, we analyse the e-Passport system's authentication protocol to protect vulnerability and proposed e-Passport system's authentication protocol reduce computation. Also, we compared their efficiency.

Biometric technology is a next-generation information security technology that provides reliability and convenience. As a core technology in the post-corona era, then on-contact biometric access control system is capable of non-face-to-face and automated technology, and is active not only in Korea but also in overseas markets such as the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. There are precautions that must be taken to reflect requirements such as cooperation between companies and approval of the US Food and Drug Admin is tration in developing IoT-based smart device customized sensors and securing H/W systems.

Biometric recognition is one of the major challenging topics which needs high performance of recognition accuracy. Most of existing methods rely on a single source of biometric to achieve recognition. The recognition accuracy in biometrics is affected by the variability of effects, including illumination and appearance variations. In this paper, we propose a new multimodal biometrics recognition using convolutional neural network. We focus on multimodal biometrics from face and periocular regions. Through experiments, we have demonstrated that facial multimodal biometrics features deep learning framework is helpful for achieving high recognition performance.

Palmprint has become a popular biometric modality; however, palmprint recognition has not been conducted in video media. Video palmprint recognition (VPR) has some advantages that are absent in image palmprint recognition. In VPR, the registration and recognition can be automatically implemented without users' manual manipulation. A good-quality image can be selected from the video frames or generated from the fusion of multiple video frames. VPR in contactless mode overcomes several problems caused by contact mode; however, contactless mode, especially mobile mode, encounters with several revere challenges. Double-line-single-point (DLSP) assisted placement technique can overcome the challenges as well as effectively reduce the localization error and computation complexity. This paper modifies DLSP technique to reduce the invalid area in the frames. In addition, the valid frames, in which users place their hands correctly, are selected according to finger gap judgement, and then some key frames, which have good quality, are selected from the valid frames as the gallery samples that are matched with the query samples for authentication decision. The VPR algorithm is conducted on the system designed and developed on mobile device.

As mobile electronics become smarter, higher-level security systems are necessary to protect private information and property from hackers. For this, biometric authentication systems have been widely studied, where the recognition of unique biological traits of an individual, such as the face, iris, fingerprint, and voice, is required to operate the device. Among them, ultrasound fingerprint imaging technology using piezoelectric materials is one of the most promising approaches adopted by Samsung Galaxy smartphones. In this review, we summarize the recent progress on piezoelectric ultrasound micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) transducers with various piezoelectric materials and provide insights to achieve the highest-level biometric authentication system for mobile electronics.

We investigated technological trends in an electrocardiogram (ECG)-based biometric cryptosystem that uses physiological features of ECG signals to provide personally identifiable cryptographic key generation and authentication services. The following technical details of the cryptosystem were investigated and analyzed: preprocessing of ECG signals, extraction of personally identifiable features, generation of quantified encryption keys from ECG signals, reproduction of ECG encryption keys under time-varying noise, and new security applications based on ECG signals. The cryptosystem can be used as a security technology to protect users from hacking, information leakage, and malfunctioning attacks in wearable/implantable medical devices, wireless body area networks, and mobile healthcare services.

Biometric authentication is rising technology for the security market of the next generation. But most of biometric systems are developed using only one of various biological features. Recently, there is a vigorous research for the standardization of various biometric systems. In this paper, we propose a web-based authentication system using three other verifiers based on functional, parametric, and structural approaches for one biometrics of handwritten signature, which is conformable to a specification of BioAPI introduced by BioAPI Consortium for a standardization of biometric technology. This system is developed with a client-server structure, and clients and servers consist of three layers according to the BioAPI structure. The proposed neb-based multiple authentication system of one biometrics can be used to highly increase confidence degree of authentication without additional several biological measurements, although rejection rate is a little increased. That is, the false accept rate(FAR) decreases on the scale of about 1:40,000, although false reject rate(FRR) increases about 2.7 times in the case of combining above three signature verifiers. So the proposed approach can be used as an effective identification method on the internet of an open network. Also, it can be easily extended to a security system using multimodal biometrics.

In Korea, currently, only the growth possibility of bioinformation industry has received the public attention, and social discussion on bioinformation management is meager. Based on this critical perspective, this study investigates the current status of public awareness of the bioinformation which can be a basis for the social discussion for bioinformation management. The most significant characteristics identified in the survey is that many citizens, while expressing their agreement on the use of biometric technology by purpose and taking an open stance on national fingerprint information collection, have considerable concern for the identity authentication system using the current biometric technology. In particular, the survey pointed out that it is hard to trust the institutions that collect the bioinformation. Also, the public expressed the particular concern for the health data including the body information and showed overwhelming consent for the necessity of more stringent regulation compared with other personal information. In regards to the medical information gathered from medical institutions, nearly 80% of the survey respondents did not agree on providing the information to commercial enterprises, and even 60% of them disagreed on using it for academic and statistical research. This result well demonstrates that thorough management of the bioinformation is required for its utilization.
