Abstract

With the increasing demands for biometric systems in our daily life for automatic identification of individuals, recently iris recognition system has gained a lot of attention attributed to its reliability, uniqueness, difficulty to be imitated and high accuracy in comparison with other available biometric recognition systems. Unfortunately, templates in traditional iris recognition system are unprotected and vulnerable to various threats, such as attacks at the iris reader level or at the database level. Hence, there is a need for developing a system for securing the existing iris recognition system for keeping the original biometrics safe and secure. In this paper, we introduce a hybrid model for protecting iris recognition system through combining an elliptic curve cryptosystem with a new salting-based cancelable iris recognition scheme. The obtained experimental results on CASIA - IrisV3 database proved that the proposed system guarantees a high degree of security and privacy protection without affecting the accuracy.
