SWOT of Biometric Technology

In its broadest sense, biometrics is the measurement and analysis of a biological characteristic (fingerprints, iris patterns, retains, face or hand geometry) or a behavioral characteristic (voice, gait or signature). Biometric technologies use these characteristics to identify individuals automatically. Unlike identity documents or passwords, biometrics cannot be lost or forgotten since they are a part of user and are always present at the time of identification. They are also difficult, though not impossible, to forge or share. In this paper we will discuss various biometrics methods and their history, then some example of behaviometric technology and the current state of biometric technology, their usage in the security operations, future areas to use them and at the end analyses for finding the strength, weaknesses, opportunities and threats that is called SWOT of biometric Technology .
