Enhance Biometric Database Privacy: Defining Privacy-Preserving Drawer Size Standard for the Setbase

摘要

Shamir proposed the setbase approach as a means of improving security and privacy of the traditional biometric system. In this paper, we propose privacy-preserving drawer size standards for the biometric setbase. The proposal incorporates database privacy metrics such as k-anonymity and l-diversity into the definition of privacy-preserving drawer size standard for the biometric setbase. We also empirically evaluate the system reliability of the prototype setbase for the purpose of studying the trade-off values between the level of privacy protection and the level of system security.
