Bio Metrics System(Finger print scanning) – system extracts the features from the finger and match the records from the database. Based on authentication of match access is provided to the users.
User Base : students, faculty, employees and anybody associated to the university.
Major Functionality: Based on scanning of finger prints give access or do the transaction for the customer.
Bio-metrics reader, computer systems, hard disks etc.
Scanning client and server software, database.
Weekly or monthly routine checkup or maintenance.
This system has highly sensitive data. University cannot allow any intrusion into the system or system shut down.
Its not easy to design and deploy the security architecture that incorporates Bio-metrics system.
Some of the major common risks and countermeasures to control
Server side-Fake template Risks
Good implementation of the security policy which incorporates the encryption of technologies and prevention of intrusion, its detection and response controls.
Brute Force Attack Risk
Account will be locked after a certain number of failed attempts.
Communication links Risks
System will be integrated into one single hardware security module, interactive authentication, rejection of template if not authorized.
Power Loss Risks
Well-implemented security policy which will runs on a battery immediately during the time of power loss. Inverters are used if the battery gets drained.
Residual and Characteristic Risks
It will be controlled by the technology assessment and interactive authentication.
