NDLI: Unlinkable minutiae-based fuzzy vault for multiple fingerprints

Content Provider	IET Digital Library
Author	Tams, Benjamin
Abstract	The ‘fuzzy vault scheme’ is a cryptographic primitive being considered for storing fingerprint minutiae protected. A well-known problem of the fuzzy vault scheme is its vulnerability against correlation attack-based cross-matching thereby conflicting with the ‘unlinkability requirement’ and ‘irreversibility requirement’ of effective biometric information protection. Yet, it has been demonstrated that in principle a minutiae-based fuzzy vault can be secured against the correlation attack by passing the to-be-protected minutiae through a quantisation scheme. Unfortunately, single fingerprints seem not to be capable of providing an acceptable security level against offline attacks. To overcome the aforementioned security issues, this study shows how an implementation for multiple fingerprints can be derived on basis of the implementation for single finger thereby making use of a Guruswami–Sudan algorithm-based decoder for verification. The implementation, for which public C++ source code can be downloaded, is evaluated for single and various multi-finger settings using the MCYT-Fingerprint-100 database and provides security-enhancing features such as the possibility of combination with password and a slow-down mechanism.
