Design End to end Encryption based Biometric system for Security

Abstract

Biometric systems are an integral part of physical access control systems. Biometric systems ensure that an opportunity to use a system or service is done by a valid user. These systems are used in various applications like ATMs, voting system, aadhar card, attendance management system etc. The biometric systems are in operation for a quite long time and their use is increasing. There is a need for low cost, scalable systems with high availability. In this paper a cloud based biometric system architecture is proposed, to make the system efficient and economical for remote enrollment. Authentication node is implemented on a Raspberry Pi, which is a low cost computer running on Linux. The system is capable of capturing multimodal biometric traits such as face and fingerprints and send them to cloud service by end-to–end encryption process.
