Fingerprint identity is a novel system that protects fingerprint privacy by combining then into two different fingerprints into a unique identity. With this a new virtual identity is created for the two different fingerprints which can be matched using Beta Skeleton Technique, compared with Beta Skeleton technique, one work has the advantage of creating a better new virtual identity when two different Fingerprints are randomly chosen we also use water marking method to combine two different fingerprints, then combine, by overlapping both fingerprint as one finger image. (i) Can be used to form virtual identities from two different fingers. (ii) Can be used to obscure the information present in an individual image prior to storing in a database. (iii) It can also be used to produce a cancelable fingerprint template, such as the template can be reset if the mixed fingerprint is been compromised. Fingerprints are the most widely used biometric feature for person identification and verification in the field of biometric
