Detecting Masquerade in Face Recognition System – A Literature survey
Sun Li-na, Dr. R. Latha · IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering · 2014
A masquerader is an (often external) attacker is one who, after succeeding in obtaining a legitimateuser's credentials, attempts to use the stolen identity to carry out malicious actions.Automatic detection of masquerading attacks is generally undertaken by approaching theproblem from an anomaly detection perspective: a model of normal behaviour for eachuser is constructed and significant departures from it are identified as potentialmasquerading attempts.The most common techniqueto masquerade a face recognition system is to use a photo print or a video of a valid user to gain illegitimate access.There exist methods in literature addressing this issue.This paper presents an analysis of masquerade detection algorithms in face recognition system.
