Cybersecurity

In the always changing world of cybersecurity, biometric access methods are a defense

system that safeguards against identity theft and unwanted access. Because biometric

identification is based on distinct physical characteristics such as fingerprints, face recognition,

or even retinal patterns, as opposed to ordinary passwords or PINs, it is far more difficult for

criminals to bypass security measures. Organizations in an array of industries, including

government and finance, use biometric technologies to bolster their digital barriers. For example,

banks use fingerprint scanners to confirm customers' identities while doing business, while

border control agencies use facial recognition software for better border security. Such

applications emphasize the critical role that biometric access techniques play in protecting

sensitive data and infrastructure from cyber-attacks, while also enhancing security and

streamlining user experience.

Biometric access is a key component in cyber defense strategy which aims to dictate

policies, procedures and technologies that protect digital assets from cyber attacks. The strategy

involves preventing, detecting, responding and recovering from the vulnerable situations.

Biometrics fall under the category of general defense controls, and the sub category access

controls which focus on the two step process of identity verification, and the grant or denial of

specific permissions on a computer or mobile device (Turban, 2021). The concept of biometrics

started in the 14th century, with the Chinese putting ink on children's feet to identify them. Five-

Hundred years later French scientist and police officer, Alphones Bertillon utilized the rich

groves on the inner ends of fingers to identify offenders, thus starting an identification system

based on physical measurements in law enforcement (Khoury, 2013).
