Enhanced RSA Key Generation Modelling Using Fingerprint Biometric
Neha Bansal · Helix · 2018
The RSA is a de-facto standard for public key cryptography, which provides, data confidentiality, data integrity, and authentication.However, RSA is computationally more expensive and needs longer key lengths which are very difficult to store on smaller computing devices e.g.smartphone, smartcards, palmtop, etc. Key generation using the matrix in RSA provides a way to reduce the key storage space but generating it randomly do not achieve any security goals.Biometrics can identify each person uniquely so here the matrix is generated using fingerprints.The matrix formed using fingerprints need to be stored in the database.In this paper to protect the matrix in the database from security breaches Fuzzy Vault is used which acts like a locker to provide confidentially to the matrix.
