Increased Security, while protecting Privacy ?True or False ?Christer Bergman, President and CEO, Precise Biometrics
I will talk about... • Precise Biometrics (very brief) • Biometrics..? • Smart Card & Smart ID Card • Fingerprint matching on card • ”Increased Security, while protecting Privacy? True or False?
This is Precise Biometrics • World leading security solutions based on fingerprint • Holds world’s first patent within “Match-on-Card” • Founded in 1997 in Lund, Sweden • Offices in Lund (40), Stockholm (2) and Washington DC (6) • Listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange O-list since 2000
What we do We create fingerprint-based security solutions for companies, organizations, authorities and private individuals that replaces PIN:s, passwords and keys.
Trends that fuel the need for biometrics • Market trends: • Globalization • Mobility and flexibility • Digitalization • Technology enablers: • Internet • Wireless • e-business and smart cards All driving a cumbersome growth of PIN-codes and passwords
Problems • Concern that sensitive data is accessed by unauthorized users • e-business without trust – who’s at the other end of the Internet? • Passwords, PIN-codes, keys, etc are a hassle => security is often cheated, or upheld at high admin cost
Solutions • Confidentiality – encryption • Authentication – digital certificates • Non-repudiation – digital signatures • Convenience + personal security – biometrics Digital identity management, smart cards and biometrics enables security and convenience by making the digital identity personal
Why biometrics? • Uniquely linked to a person, who is present • Secure and convenient • “No more passwords” (or “Post-It” stickers…) • Convenient = it will be used • Cannot be borrowed, stolen or forgotten • Saves money • Less fraud • Less cost for password administration
What biometrics, and how ? • Surveillance vs. Access to a service • Identification vs. Authentication • 1-to-many vs. 1-to-1 • Enrollment & Verification • Fingerprint Image vs. Biometric Template • Traditional Feature (Minutia) Matching • More advanced pattern or hybrid matching • Match-on-Server, Match-on-PC or Match-on Card • Security or Privacy or Both ?!
Smart Cards - A small computer and a crytographic token • Contains and handles sensitive data • transactions / e-cash / identity / health profiles • secret codes and keys • biometric templates • Performs cryptographic computations for • authentication / digital signatures • confidentiality by encryption • key management protocols • biometric match-on-card

Why Match-on-Card? • Scalability The matching is performed locally on the card – the system scalability doesn’t have any limit – the matching is fast and independent of open networks • Security Two factor authentication – demanding both a valid smart card, where fragments of your fingerprint are securely stored – and your fingerprint • Privacy The template never leaves the secure environment – it cannot be copied or stolen – the privacy issue is radically resolved
