Abstract

Advancement in the field of Information Technology also made Security an important and inseparable part of it. To deal with security, Authentication plays a vital role. Mobile devices continued to evolve in terms of the capabilities and services offered, so they created demands in terms of security. This paper presents a review on the biometric authentication techniques used in mobile phones. A wide range of systems require trustworthy personal recognition schemes to either to determine or confirm the identity of a person requesting for their services. The purpose of such scheme is to ensure that provided services are accessed only by a real and authorised user, and not by anyone else. In this paper we have shown various biometric technologies used in authentication in mobile phones and showing their advantages and disadvantages.
