As technology continues to evolve and become more accessible, the need for improved security of data is at an all time high.Biometrics as a form of authentication have been around for quite some time now, but while the technique itself is fairly sound, the way it is implemented can be modified to enhance the system's security.This is where blockchain comes in.By integrating both these technologies, we can minimize the probability of biometric data being leaked or misused while also ensuring that authentication process goes on without any hiccups.Furthermore, offering it as a service will encourage many other services to opt for biometric authentication without having to worry about the security and integrity of the data being stored.By utilizing the concept of smart contracts in our project, we ensure that the project can handle dynamic data and also make sure that the essential conditions are met before the user can utilize our project to enhance the security of their websites.This project will be of immense value to a diverse set of people who need means of providing biometric security to their data but neither have the tools nor the resources to carry it out.
