Authentication
Definition: Authentication
Process whose objective is to guarantee the identity of a user or a
service given a set level of confidence.
User Authentication
Definition: Authentication factors
An authentication factor is an authenticator element:
what we know (password),
what we own (smartcard),
What we are or how we behave (biometrics).

Biometric modalities :
Biological analysis:
Odour, blood, DNA…
Behavioural analysis:
Keystroke dynamics, voice, gait, signature dynamics...
Morphological analysis:
Fingerprint, iris, palmprint, finger veins, face, ear…
Authentication

Properties: A biometric information must respect the following properties:
Universality: All individuals can be characterized by this
information ;
Uniqueness: The biometric information must be as dissimilar
as possible for two different individuals ;
Permanency: It must subsist during all individual’s life ;
Collectability: The biometric information must be easily
computed ;
Acceptability: Users must be ready to give this information.

Threshold
True

Low threshold : no problem for genuine
users but impostors might be authenticated
High threshold: no impostor
but genuine will be disturbed

Conclusion
Biometrics
Benefit:
Close relationship between the client and its authenticator
drawbacks:
performance (EER>0%)
acceptability of users
Perspectives:
increase the computing performance
improve algorithms (performance, robustness…)
respect the privacy of users
