A Study on User Authentication Methodology Using Numeric Password and Fingerprint Biometric Information

الملخص EN

The prevalence of computers and the development of the Internet made us able to easily access information.

As people are concerned about user information security, the interest of the user authentication method is growing.

The most common computer authentication method is the use of alphanumerical usernames and passwords.

The password authentication systems currently used are easy, but only if you know the password, as the user authentication is vulnerable.

User authentication using fingerprints, only the user with the information that is specific to the authentication security is strong.

But there are disadvantage such as the user cannot change the authentication key.

In this study, we proposed authentication methodology that combines numeric-based password and biometric-based fingerprint authentication system.

Use the information in the user's fingerprint, authentication keys to obtain security.

Also, using numeric-based password can to easily change the password; the authentication keys were designed to provide flexibility.
