Editorial Reviews

Review

"Practical Biometrics" is "practical" in the truest sense of the word. Julian Ashbourn has a thorough understanding of biometric technology and the issues organizations need to address when they set out to deploy biometric-based security. He does an excellent job of communicating that knowledge and describing how BANTAM and Pentaksi, systems he developed, can be used to enhance the success of biometric implementations.", Judith Markowitz, President, J. Markowitz, Consultants, USA



Product Description

Containing a wealth of real world advice and written from an operational rather than purely academic perspective, "Practical Biometrics" examines the many issues raised by the application of biometric technologies to practical situations. This book concentrates on the practical implementation of biometric verification techniques, with specific regard to wide scale public applications. It acts as a practical guide to implementation, identifying the associated issues around: * Scalability * Interoperability * Ethnicity * Failure to enrol * User psychology Features and Benefits Highlights non device-specific issues such as human factors, environment, privacy and data protection Focuses on the practical aspects of managing large-scale systems Provides an invaluable resource to program managers, application developers and consultants working in this area
