Abstract The rapid growth of smart technologies and services has intensified the challenges surrounding identity authentication techniques. Biometric credentials are increasingly being used for verification due to their advantages over traditional methods, making it crucial to safeguard the privacy of people’s biometric data in various scenarios. This paper offers an in-depth exploration for privacy-preserving techniques and potential threats to biometric systems. It proposes a noble and thorough taxonomy survey for privacy-preserving techniques, as well as a systematic framework for categorizing the field’s existing literature. We review the state-of-the-art methods and address their advantages and limitations in More >

Abstract Nowadays, there is tremendous growth in biometric authentication and cybersecurity applications. Thus, the efficient way of storing and securing personal biometric patterns is mandatory in most governmental and private sectors. Therefore, designing and implementing robust security algorithms for users’ biometrics is still a hot research area to be investigated. This work presents a powerful biometric security system (BSS) to protect different biometric modalities such as faces, iris, and fingerprints. The proposed BSS model is based on hybridizing auto-encoder (AE) network and a chaos-based ciphering algorithm to cipher the details of the stored biometric patterns and… More >
