Fundamental Concept of Biometric Systems

Due to the increasing security vulnerability of identifying persons the biometric systems components a security system (s) which comprises of hardware and software architectural designs was used as a secured authentication method. The biometric systems are the most secured authentication methods in our time and probably for the next generations. The architectural components of biometric systems are not a new invention he study used quantitative research methodology; a survey method was adapted. Both primary and secondary data of accessing architectural components that support biometric systems in Ghana was obtained. A sample of one hundred respondents was used for the study.
