BIO-CRYPT- Enhancing security with biometric encryption
S. Rajashree, Esha Seth, G. Lakshmi Shree, M S Harsha · 2024
BIO-CRYPT offers an innovative encryption paradigm that uses biometric data for enhanced security measures. The system integrates fingerprint biometric features as the basis of a reliable encryption architecture. This article describes the main mechanisms for acquiring biometric data, converting it to an encryption key, and then encrypting the data. The core of BIO-CRYPT is the encoding and decoding of confidential information using biometric keys generated by unique biological markers. The system uses advanced algorithms to authenticate authorized users based on biometric data and grants access only after successful authentication. This article discusses the system&s;s versatility in a variety of domains, from access control systems to financial transactions, and demonstrates its potential for strengthening security protocols. BIO-CRYPT provides a dynamic approach to encryption that uses the inherent uniqueness of biometrics to improve data security.
