Improving biometrics authentication with a multi-factor approach based on optical interference and chaotic maps

We propose a method to improve biometric authentication systems using a multifactor approach. For this security scheme a user authenticates successfully using a set of three characteristics related to physical, possession and knowledge factors. Besides biometric authentication representing the physical factor, we propose the use of an optical authentication technique based on two-beam interference and chaotic maps. In this sense, the seed of a chaotic map represents a user password corresponding to a knowledge factor and a resultant interferogram from optical authentication technique is used as a possession factor. The feasibility of our method is tested using numerical simulation. Moreover, key space and statistical analysis are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the solution.
