The 5th IMI Colloquium   Date：21 December 2011 (Wed) 17:00-18:00           (16:30-17:00 tea time at common room) Place：Lecture Room L-1 (3F, IMI, Kyushu University) Speaker： Kenta Takahashi (Hitachi, Ltd., Yokohama Research Laboratory)   Title：Biometrics and Information Security   Abstract: Biometric authentication technology, which automatically identifies a person based on his/her physical features are widely used for various applications. However, biometric features such as fingerprints can not be revoked like passwords. To address this issue, an authentication scheme called "template-protected biometric authentication" has been studied for a decade. However, this task involves difficulty to merge biometric technology, which deals with analogue information, with cryptography, which deals with digital information. In this talk, I will present an overview and some examples of template-protected biometric authentication, and introduce our recent researches IMI Colloquium Report
