Twin Layer Iris Certification for Confidential Archive by Conceiving Shares (ICCA-CS)

Iris is one of the most challenging biometric techniques. In many proposed biometric recognition technique, template’s are store in the database for comparison. But there exists a vital problem in storing the template in the database since it can be easily bootlegged. In order to overcome these issues a novel method for person identification by their Iris, through securely storing the template is proposed. Visual Cryptography Encryption (VCE) technique is used for securely storing the iris template. By means of VCE, shares are generated for the iris template which is stored in the database instead of storing the entire template. Shares are generated by pixel expansion method. Authentication is provided by comparing the shares. Comparison is done by using Hamming Code. So it is a very effective method of person identification. The proposed method gives an extra security in iris recognition.
