Telebiometrics: Security


The security market remains to be one of the fastest growing markets in the world. For example, Homeland Security Newswire reports that the voice recognition market will grow from 38.4 Billion USD to 56.4 Billion USD by 2015. Computational based systems (Computers) need to access the risk to the system by knowing their customer. When you dial into your credit card system the computer automated system is matching your voice profile based upon previous conversations and determining if you are who you claim to be.


Telebiometrics enhances security in 3 ways:

  1. It brings unified biological standards, a metrics system, for near field quantification of biological systems.
  2. A standard for encryption Telebiometric Multi-Modal Model which protects people's biological identity or profile while logged into the network.
  3. A unified biological metric system for identifying biology, physiology from a great distance.


At airports video surveillance systems can monitor passengers and compare biometric profiles against that of people of interest. Behaviors can be detected and report suspicious activity and sensitive areas such as loitering to close to the fire exits. In a pandemic situation, IP based video cameras can motor passengers thermal signatures, alerting port authority possible infected travelers.


With these three basic principles, numerous applications are emerging.For secure transactions in mobile telecommunication markets, multimodal biometrics is used to identify and authenticate users for secure financial transactions without revealing the users biological profile to the network. In the medical industry, inexpensive PC cameras can compare patients physiological profile with that of the insurance company's database. New threats growing explosively in number and complexity - attacks that exploit the vulnerabilities of applications, insider sabotages, identity theft, and unauthorized access to corporate systems and networks.
