(as possible), and to restrict access to secure sites including buidings and computer networks. Biometric
systems recognize a person based on physiological characteristics, such as fingerprints, hand and facial
features, and iris patterns, or behavioral characteristics that are learned or acquired, such as how a person
signs his name, types, or even walks.
