  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Breakthroughs in Digital Biometrics and Forensics

Abstract

Automatic decision-making, especially when dealing with crucial cybersecurity and privacy issues, has become one of the key directions in digital identity research. Trustworthy human-AI collaboration highlights emergent multifaceted role of AI and deep learning in biometric online security. Biometrics are also increasingly used in a variety of government programs, intended to ensure cybersecurity and to mitigate inherent risks associated with online activities. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art approaches in the biometric domain, including physiological, behavioral, and social behavioral biometrics. It further establishes connection among biometric online security, privacy, and human psychological traits, including emotions, psychology and aesthetics. This in turn leads to new insights on ensuring safe and secure digital space through artificial intelligence methods, including most recent deep learning approaches. In addition, this chapter discusses emerging paradigms to ensure privacy and trustworthiness of biometric systems: cancelability, de-identification, and information fusion. The chapter is concluded with future research directions in the vibrant domain of behavioral biometrics and online security.
