Impostor Users Discovery Using a Multimodal Biometric Continuous Authentication Fuzzy System

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 5178))

Abstract

In the last few years the security of the user’s identity has become of paramount importance. In this paper we investigate the behavior of a fuzzy controller with a multimodal biometric system as input designed with the aim of preventing user substitution after the initial authentication process. In particular this paper presents the results of the system behavior tested with impostor users.
