What is a Biometrics System?

A biometrics system uses unique physiological or behavioral characteristics—such as fingerprints, facial features, iris patterns, or voice—to authenticate individuals and control access to buildings, devices, or data. These systems provide a higher level of security compared to traditional methods like passwords or access cards.
