Enhanced Security for ATM Machine with OTP and Facial Recognition Features

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to reinforce security of the conventional ATM model. We have posited a new concept that enhances the overall experience, usability and convenience of the transaction at the ATM. Features like face recognition and One-Time Password (OTP) are used for the enhancement of security of accounts and privacy of users. Face recognition technology helps the machine to identify each and every user uniquely thus making face as a key. This completely eliminates the chances of fraud due to theft and duplicity of the ATM cards. Moreover, the randomly generated OTP frees the user from remembering PINs as it itself acts as a PIN.
