The proposed scheme involves an idea of including three biometric traits of a person where in the sense even if one fails the other trait could be utilised for verification or identity. Moreover the concept of cryptosystem is involved, where one of the biometric trait – the palm vein itself acts as a key to utilise the stored template database. The main idea in using one of the biometric trait as a key is that under any circumstance no two palm veins match unless it belong to same person. It is a valid key which no one can steal or misuse.
