Biometric Security refers to the use of unique biological characteristics, such as fingerprints, iris patterns, facial features, voice patterns, or hand geometry, to authenticate and verify the identity of individuals. It employs biometric technology to provide secure access control to physical spaces, digital devices, and sensitive information.
