This report provides analysis of different aspects of biometric data security, threats, and corresponding solutions. Three primary topics featuring vulnerabilities and solutions are discussed based on current industry growth: fingerprint technologies on smartphones, biometric implementations in enterprise & BYOD, and system security both from a conceptual and a technical framework. Biocryptography, cyberattacks, privacy, system integrity and other security topics are broken down into individual aspects and reformulated to construct a biometric security framework, suggestions for implementation, and guidelines on what to avoid.
