Biometrics refers to the identification and verification of individuals based on their unique physiological or behavioral characteristics. Common physiological biometric methods include fingerprint scanning, facial recognition, and retina or iris scans, while behavioral characteristics might encompass voice recognition and keystroke dynamics. Biometrics offer a more secure and convenient alternative to traditional identification methods like passwords or tokens, as they are inherently linked to the individual and are difficult to forge or steal. In recent years, biometric authentication has become increasingly prevalent in a variety of applications, from unlocking smartphones to airport security and financial transactions.
