“Dear Isaac, There are a number of Biometrics features you can use as non obstructive, fingerprint is probably the most used but other features are getting interests (voice, ECGs etc.). However, the chances to get the features without user cooperation poses serious ethical questions. Can you pick selected features without the subject (because is no longer a user in this case) agreement? I am sure that security concerns might overcome these ethical constraints, thus I suggest to look at authors as Agrafioti (http://www.tedmed.com/speakers/show?id=292950) And a recent review on ECG as biometrics we developed: https://biomedical-engineering-online.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12938-015-0072-y All the best, Antonio”

“Firstly, you need to build the security into the applications which access your data. The protection of data at rest has always been a vexed issue, since someone, somewhere knows the location and/or value of the encryption keys. Our data isn't particularly 'Big', but we've put a lot of effort into making sure that no human knows, or can access the keys. This may not be relevant to your question, but it might help provoke some thought on the subject. Securely Encrypting Data At Rest”

“Blockchains are distributed networks and all data in the blockchain is secured through cryptography or some complex Integrity Chains. Bigger blockchain networks with more users have a very lower risk of getting attacked by hackers because of the complexity required to penetrate such a big complex distributed network. Its not easy to break such Integrity chains. So it will definitely improve the security of Information transfers.”

“Biometrics can be used to access devices that are near you and you hold in your hand. With the physical proximity, it is an added factor for devices that are supposed to be used by a specific user (hand held device, or a physical cases like door access where there is some supervision that the person indeed puts their fingers or eyes for reading). Adding bio to other factors (like password and device producing one-time passwords) are good. For remote uses one has to make sure to carefully and secure encrypt the biometrics based information (and maybe combine it with other factors) since otherwise the signals can be read and re-used if available on the clear. To summarize: one can use bio information in scenarios where there is proximity, or supervision, or in conjunction with other factors, and in a mode protected when communicated to a remote checking apparatus. In many other scenarios there are problems with biometrics information (copying fingerprints and embedding them in what is known as "gummy fingers" was one way that was shown to bypass biometrics-- so care is needed, see: https://cryptome.org/gummy.htm).”

“Both of them are better than alphanumeric password. It depends on the situation and device you want to use. Bio-metrics locks are more secure than graphical password e.g., pattern based.

“@ Dariusz Prokopowicz, i will give you a quick one. In this digital world, there is need for surveillance of citizens by the government for various reasons. Some of them include: - the rise of cyber crimes, sometimes surveillance can assist in mitigating them as a way of implementing cyber security. - the rise of eCommerce and the digitization of most transactions and activities, there has to be a central way of monitoring such activities as control measures, in a bid to also have a reduction in such cases. As long as there is a policy or a framework on how the surveillance will be implemented, its mandatory in this information age. There is need for some guidance on how it is done and people be told about such surveillance apriori, awareness is key. I also believe to some extend, its too big. every activity is monitored, compromising the confidentiality (privacy) of individuals. if properly communicated, people will gladly consent for surveillance”

“If you want to describe the first steps to the face recognition you do not need to study the face recognition systems, you must study the face recognition algorithms and find in the campus or the place in which the system are going to be deploy the main requirement to be consider to for example do not have any blind spot, the position of the camera most be in such a way that capture a good quality image to increase the amount of information in the face feature extraction among other things. I suggest you research the state of the art about face recognition algorithm, their strength and limitations.”

“@ Dariusz Prokopowicz, i will give you a quick one. In this digital world, there is need for surveillance of citizens by the government for various reasons. Some of them include: - the rise of cyber crimes, sometimes surveillance can assist in mitigating them as a way of implementing cyber security. - the rise of eCommerce and the digitization of most transactions and activities, there has to be a central way of monitoring such activities as control measures, in a bid to also have a reduction in such cases. As long as there is a policy or a framework on how the surveillance will be implemented, its mandatory in this information age. There is need for some guidance on how it is done and people be told about such surveillance apriori, awareness is key. I also believe to some extend, its too big. every activity is monitored, compromising the confidentiality (privacy) of individuals. if properly communicated, people will gladly consent for surveillance”
