Multi-Layer Biometric System for the Port of Los Angeles.

摘要

The purpose of this project is to study and analyze the existing biometric technology, and propose a multi-layer biometric security system for one of the largest ports on the west coast of the United States, the port of Los Angeles in California. The multi-layer biometric security system contains a new mechanism against impersonation attack based on voice recognition, which will be protecting the port from any outside, unauthorized breach mainly that could be caused by a breach from the transportation medium personals. The multi-layer biometric security system will also create redundancy path in case of one technology is down or misused. The proposed system will mainly work on verification mode; however in case of a breach, it will automatically switch mode to identification mode to try to find a match of identity in the wanted or terrorist databases collected by the different government agencies.
