Penetration of Biometrics 


Biometrics are the measurable biological or behavioral characteristics used for identification of an individual. Fingerprints are a common biometric used, but others include things like DNA, irises, voice patterns, palm prints, and facial patterns.

Over the years, biometrics has been incredibly useful not only to authenticate an individual’s identity, but more importantly, to figure out who someone is (by a fingerprint left on a murder weapon or a bomb, for example), typically by scanning a database of records for a match.

Fingerprints vary from person to person (even identical twins have different prints) and don’t change over time. As a result, they are an effective way of identifying fugitives and helping to prove both guilt and innocence.  

Fingerprint access for buildings is not new. Many high security facilities have used biometric technology for years when it comes to ensuring only authorized personal gain access to the most well protected establishments.

When it comes to blood bank; identity is pretty important. In the past donors were issued with blue cards containing all the information required. More and more these days that crucial data is being stored digitally – with donors using finger print or iris recognition to access their vital details.  

As well as ensuring that only pupils and authorized adults gain entry to school buildings, biometric data is also used for activities such as; recording attendance, checking out library books or even paying for meals.
