A biometric characteristic is a general term used to describe a measurable physiological and\/or behavioral characteristic. There are many biometric modalities available including fingerprint, finger vein, palm vein, face, iris, voice, signature and more. With growing security concerns there is a growing need for reliable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/hybrid-biometric-platform\/?utm_source=choosing%20biometric%20modality&amp;utm_medium=blog%20post&amp;utm_campaign=blog\"><strong>biometric system<\/strong><\/a><strong>s<\/strong> to be deployed in various industries such as government, banking or financial services, and enterprise identity management which demands a reliable, highly secure system for authentication. However, implementing a suitable biometric modality that takes into consideration the unique requirements, environment, and circumstances of the application is key to a successful project that can ensure accurate identity management, usability, and reliability.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What do you consider before choosing a biometric modality?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Depending on the application, environment, or circumstance, biometric modalities can be chosen to meet the operational requirements of the deployment. Different industries need different types of biometric modalities based on different scenarios depending on the application context in which a biometric system is designed. The successful implementation of the biometric identification system is analyzed with consideration to the type of the modality used, performance of the system, cost, and limitations. However, the performance and cost effectiveness may vary depending on choosing the right biometric modality that takes into consideration deployment requirements and environment. Environments include the working conditions of the people who will use this system on a daily basis, how they will use it, user acceptance, and feasibility.\u00a0 In many cases the success of a biometric system depends on choosing the right biometric modality. Sometimes deployments may require combining two biometric modalities (referred to as \u201cmulti-modal\u201d biometrics) to ensure optimal accuracy. Therefore, choosing the right biometric modality is important to maximize the full benefits from a biometric system.\u00a0 There are some important factors which need to be considered before choosing a biometric modality such as:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Accuracy<\/li>\n<li>Security<\/li>\n<li>Availability<\/li>\n<li>Ease of use<\/li>\n<li>Anti-spoofing capabilities<\/li>\n<li>User acceptance<\/li>\n<li>Usability<\/li>\n<li>Cost effectiveness<\/li>\n<li>Hygienic Issue<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Which biometric modality will be the best for you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Biometric systems use a number of individual physical or behavioral characteristics for identification. Each character used depends on the application environment and has its own strengths and weakness. Biometric modalities are defined as:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Fingerprint:<\/strong> Fingerprint identification is the most popular biometric identification modality, widely used in various industries such as law enforcement, forensic departments, government projects, healthcare, banking, and workforce management. Fingerprints have a pattern of ridges and valleys on the surface of the finger tips. Fingerprint biometric identification is now mostly used for end user identification in law enforcement agencies, government projects such as national ID, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/automated-fingerprint-identification-system-afis-voter-registration\/?utm_source=choosing%20biometric%20modality&amp;utm_medium=blog%20post&amp;utm_campaign=blog\"><strong>voter registration<\/strong><\/a>, immigration control, \u00a0in the banking and financial industries, and for enterprises or businesses to manage large workforce management identities. For example, Nigeria registered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/biometric-fingerprint-software-case-studies-nigerian-voter-registration\/?utm_source=choosing%20biometric%20modality&amp;utm_medium=blog%20post&amp;utm_campaign=blog\"><strong>20 million voters with fingerprint biometrics<\/strong><\/a> in 2007, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/biometric-fingerprint-software-case-studies-iraqi-border-control\/?utm_source=choosing%20biometric%20modality&amp;utm_medium=blog%20post&amp;utm_campaign=blog\"><strong>Iraqi border control<\/strong><\/a> department deployed fingerprint biometrics to boost security and increase efficiency.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Finger vein and palm vein:<\/strong> Also referred to as \u201cvascular biometrics\u201d biometric identification based on vein patterns and uses pattern-recognition techniques based on images of the human finger and palm vein beneath the skin&#8217;s surface. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/finger-vein-reader\/?utm_source=choosing%20biometric%20modality&amp;utm_medium=blog%20post&amp;utm_campaign=blog\"><strong>Finger vein<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/palm-vein-reader\/?utm_source=choosing%20biometric%20modality&amp;utm_medium=blog%20post&amp;utm_campaign=blog\"><strong>palm vein<\/strong><\/a> recognition are very similar, one method recognizes the finger veins and the other recognizes the palm veins. The properties of uniqueness, non-variability, and stability, plus being very immune to spoofing makes this biometric modality more secure than fingerprints and provides a higher level of accuracy. Although vein patterns of your palm are unique, they will vary over a period of time early in life which means anyone enrolled in a palm vein system at young age has to be re-enrolled after reaching adult age.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Due to vascular biometrics being a more secure way of identification than fingerprints, the banking and financial industries and immigration\/border control departments are beginning to more frequently implement this technology. \u00a0For example, Infinite Solution integrated biometric <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/m2-fuseid-multimodal-fingerprint-finger-vein-reader\/?utm_source=choosing%20biometric%20modality&amp;utm_medium=blog%20post&amp;utm_campaign=blog\"><strong>finger vein recognition system<\/strong><\/a> with their core banking system along with a fingerprint recognition system to ensure 100% accuracy and prevent spoofing attacks. Industries with a large workforce such as factories or coal mines where laborers are working with heavy machinery and may possess cuts and scrapes on their fingerprints that damage the integrity of the skin may not be a suitable environment for fingerprint recognition, so finger vein and palm vein recognition provide a more accurate way of securing individual identification in these environments.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n.ad-area1 { border-radius: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 20px 10px; box-shadow: 0 0px 15px #ddd; margin: 15px 8px; border-top: 5px solid #a81010; }\r\n.left-area, .right-area { width: 50%; float: left; }\r\n.left-area { padding-top: 12px; }\r\n.left-area img { max-width: 95%; }\r\n.right-area h2 { text-align: center; padding-bottom: 0; font-size: 26px; font-weight: 900; margin-top: 0; }\r\n.right-area h2 span { color: #a81010; }\r\n.right-area h3 { text-align: center; font-size: 16px; text-transform: capitalize; font-weight: 700; padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px; line-height: normal; }\r\n.ad-area-head { text-align: center; font-weight: 900; font-size: 14px; border-bottom: 1px dotted #ddd; width: 70%; margin: 0 auto; }\r\n.ad-area-desc { padding: 5px 0; }\r\n.right-area p { text-align: center; font-size: 12px; padding-bottom: 0; margin: 0; line-height: 2; }\r\n.ad-area-desc b { font-weight: 700; display: block; }\r\n.ad-area1-learn { display: table; margin: 0 auto; background: #a81010; color: #fff; padding: 6px 20px; border-radius: 50px; font-size: 14px; }\r\n.ad-area1-learn:hover { color: #fff; }\r\n\r\n@media (max-width:320px), (max-width:360px), (max-width:375px), (max-width:400px), (max-width:480px) {\r\n.left-area, .right-area { width: 100%; float: none; }\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n<div class=\"ad-area1\">\r\n\t<div style=\"overflow: hidden;\">\r\n\t\t<div class=\"left-area\">\r\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Hybrid-Biometric-Platform-Display-Ads.png\" alt=\"Bio-plugin-SDK\" width=\"\">\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<div class=\"right-area\">\r\n\t\t\t<h2><span>Hybrid Biometric Platform\u2122<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\t\t\t<h3>1 Integration, 1 platform, any form of biometrics<\/h3>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ad-area-head\">Supports: <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ad-area-desc\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<p>\u2022 Fingerprint, finger vein, iris and facial recognition <\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t<p>\u2022 Client: Windows XP, Vista, 7, 10 (32 and 64 bit) <\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t<p>\u2022 Server: Windows 2000, 2003, 2008, 2012 (32 and 64 bit)<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t<p><\/p>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<a class=\"ad-area1-learn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.m2sys.com\/hybrid-biometric-platform\/?utm_source=5+Things+to+Consider+Before+Deploying+a+Biometric+System+for+Your+Business&amp;utm_source=What%E2%80%99s+the+Secret+on+Choosing+a+Suitable+Biometric+Modality%3F&amp;utm_medium=Hybrid+Biometric+Platform&amp;utm_campaign=Blog+DisplayAds\">Learn More<\/a>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\t\r\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Iris recognition:<\/strong> Iris recognition is one of the most reliable and fastest methods of biometric identification that captures photos of your eyes and maps your unique iris pattern to verify your identity. For protecting access to high security applications and environments, iris biometrics is an excellent modality to deploy due to optimal accuracy rates, increasing user acceptance, and a non-contact, hygienic way of identification. \u00a0Iris biometrics are now a preferential biometric modality for patient identification in the healthcare industry, such as the use of the technology at Novant Health for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rightpatient.com\/novant-health-case-study\/?utm_source=choosing%20biometric%20modality&amp;utm_medium=blog%20post&amp;utm_campaign=blog\"><strong>patient identification<\/strong><\/a>. In addition, access control systems in highly secured areas such as military bases, data centers, bank vaults, border security, and government projects like passport checks and national ID are also considering iris biometrics for large scale deployments \u2013 the best example being the UID <a href=\"https:\/\/spie.org\/x108321.xml\"><strong>biometric project<\/strong><\/a> in India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Facial recognition:<\/strong> The face as a biometric characteristic has increasing universal acceptability and is steadily growing as the most common biometric credential used for identifying a person. Face biometric identification methods use facial features such as eyes, eyebrows, shape of the face, shape of mouth, and the model of the face to verify individual identity. Facial recognition is non-intrusive and has a high recognition accuracy. This method is used in applications such as criminal detection, forensic evidence, border control and immigration, enterprise identity management for large workforce management, government projects such as passport, national ID, and voter registration.
