EasyChair Preprint no. 13626

Abstract

The evolving landscape of biometric security necessitates innovative solutions to counter increasingly sophisticated fingerprint spoofing techniques. This paper, "Future Trends in Biometric Security: Addressing Fingerprint Spoofing with Advanced Imaging," explores the forefront of biometric security technologies, emphasizing the pivotal role of advanced imaging methods in enhancing the reliability and robustness of fingerprint authentication systems.
The study begins by outlining the current state of fingerprint spoofing, detailing common attack vectors such as silicon molds, 3D-printed replicas, and other sophisticated forgery methods. It highlights the limitations of traditional biometric systems in detecting these advanced spoofing techniques, underscoring the urgent need for more resilient countermeasures.
Central to this investigation is the application of advanced imaging technologies, including multispectral imaging, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and high-resolution 3D imaging. These techniques offer a deeper analysis of fingerprint characteristics, capturing both surface and subsurface details that are crucial for distinguishing between genuine and spoofed fingerprints. The paper examines how these imaging modalities can be integrated into existing biometric systems to enhance their anti-spoofing capabilities
