Biometric Authentication: A Pragmatic Model to Measure Effectiveness of Biometric System in Information Systems Security

摘要

Threats to information systems security are growing rapidly, putting pressure on businesses to protect their tangible and intangible assets [2]. A primary concern is that many attacks involve secret manner access to information resources, and organizations are often unaware of unauthorized access to their information systems [3].The organizations search for better secure authentication and identification methods for user access, e-commerce, and other security applications within their organization [13]. In recent years, biometric-based authentications and identification systems have become more widespread and have been considered for security applications [24]. This paper investigates the impact of biometrics systems effectiveness within organization and to develop a pragmatic model to measure the effectiveness of the biometrics systems within organizations.
