A Novel Approach to Login Smartphones Using Sequence of Multiple Fingerprints for Secured Authentication

Abstract

The prevalence of smartphones is increasing rapidly and the majority of them employ fingerprint recognition as a method to authenticate any application, from login to financial transactions. Presently smartphones validate phone unlocking and other applications that safeguard the smartphone with a single fingerprint recognition technique. Yet, a single fingerprint might provide an imposter easy access to carry out the attacks on stored templates and also due to False Accept Rate (FAR) and False Rejection Rate (FRR). It is necessary to have the next security level for smartphones to strengthen the existing technique. One such method is implemented by employing multiple fingerprints processed in a registered sequence. This paper proposes SMF technique to provide strong authentication security to reduce the FAR rate and results are compared with the single fingerprint authentication. Experimental results are analyzed with ROC curves by computing it with true positive and false positive rates and we have computed that how SMF technique is secured and robust on template attack using combinations. Results are discussed based on accuracy, robustness and speed using enhanced equations and performance is compared with existing system.
