Abstract: With the increasing concerns for security, automated systems for authorization and authentication have become enormously important in every sector today. The need to secure information, services, and systems has increased. Conventional methods of authentications are knowledge based like passwords and PIN or object based like tokens, ID. Problem with these methods is that passwords can be cracked, ID can be stolen, and PIN can be forgotten. But Biometric systems that are currently available today examine fingerprints, handprints, iris and retina patterns, and face. Biometric cannot be borrowed; stolen, or forgotten and forging one is also very difficult. Biometrics can be categorized as behavioral and physiological. The main aim of this study is to make a comparative study of multimodal biometrics and declare the best effective method of biometrics that offers both security and convenience.
Keywords: biometrics, identification, verification, Applications.
