Cryptography based Internet Security ATM System using Fingerprint for securing PIN

Abstract

Today, ATMs (automated teller machines) are used in a variety of ways, including: you can withdraw cash, transfer cash, check your balance, get an account summary, and more. The main component here is security, to maintain the security we prefer cryptography and biometrics. Cryptography is a state- of-the-art technique for increasing security. Using cryptography and biometrics together creates a bio cryptographic system. Since the private key is an important component of encryption, here one is the main task to secure the private [1] key. To overcome this issue, we use a biometric fingerprint image. However, biometrics cannot protect anyone’s fingerprint template because of the many suspected attacks. Therefore, we use a fuzzy vault system that combines cryptography [2] and biometrics [4] to ensure that only authorized users can use their passwords and PINs with the legal data.
