Abstract
This paper provides an overview and analysis of existing biometric authentication methods. Biometric authentication enhances the security of traditional authentication methods by utilizing unique biological characteristics of individuals, such as fingerprints, facial features, or iris patterns, to verify identity. However, implementing biometric authentication may involve initial setup costs for service providers due to the need for specialized hardware and software. Additionally, users may experience some initial inconvenience during the enrollment process to register their biometric data. This paper presents a comparative analysis of the usability of biometric authentication techniques. Initially, a survey of existing work is conducted by comparing techniques, algorithms, and metrics used in research. Later the challenges of the distinct types of authentication techniques are discussed, and their problems are discovered. Subsequently, the findings of a quantitative study based on a are presented, aimed at assessing the usability of those techniques. The findings indicate that authentic biometric techniques are perceived as usable.
