Abstract
Authentication technologies using biometrics already play a major role in the context of security systems. Some techniques are used in several services not only to ensure physical access to facilities but also to provide some thoroughness in access control. This study addresses the perception of users regarding the use of biometric authentication technologies. The results derived from a survey indicate a trend of acceptance of such technologies on the access control to health services.
