Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -What Is Biometric Authentication? Biometrics is a secure process that verifies a person’s identity based on their unique biological characteristics, such as fingerprints or retinal scans. Biometric systems compare physical or behavioral characteristics to verified real-world data.

Detailed explanation-2: -What is biometrics? Biometrics is the most suitable means of identifying and authenticating individuals in a reliable and fast way through unique biological characteristics.

Detailed explanation-3: -Face, fingerprint, hand geometry, palm print, iris, voice, signature, gait, and keystroke dynamics are examples of biometric traits. In the context of a given system and application, the presentation of a user’s biometric feature involves both biological and behavioral aspects.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fingerprint recognition and iris scanning are the most well-known forms of biometric security. However, facial recognition and (finger and palm) vein pattern recognition are also gaining in popularity. In this article we consider the pros and cons of all these different techniques for biometric security.

Detailed explanation-5: -Biometric factors are defined by seven characteristics: universality, uniqueness, permanence, collectability, performance, acceptability, and circumvention [4].
