Biometrics is the technical term for body measurements and calculations. This involves technically analysing either the physical or behavioural characteristics of individuals for authentication purposes. As trivial as the concept sounds, your biometric data is what defines you; it is permanent and can’t be changed like a username or password. Hence, great care should be taken to not only use biometrics for secure measures but also to secure the biometric data itself. FingerTec understands this notion perfectly and we’ve thus prepared an expanded guide to provide data users with general information on the protection of biometric data collected from FingerTec devices and highlight the principles as well as some of the requirements that may be applicable to the respective data user.
