Design of Secured Key Generation Algorithm using Fingerprint Based Biometric Modality

Abstract

Many high-secure applications are using biometrics for natural, user-friendly and quick authentication. Cryptography is meant to make sure the secrecy and authenticity of message and protecting the confidentiality of the cryptographic keys is one among the numerous problems to be dealt with. Researchers are examining suggests that to utilize biometric options of the user to get sturdy and repeatable cryptographic keys rather than a memorable password. This may be efficiently solved by the combination of biometrics with cryptography. This paper presents ways for generating the strong bio-crypt key based mostly on fingerprint. Fingerprint biometric modality is predominantly thought of due to its two vital characteristics uniqueness and permanence that's ability to stay unchanged over the lifetime
