4. APPLICATIONS OF BIOMETRIC
   TECHNIQUES
   Biometric authentication is highly reliable, because
   physical human characteristics are much more difficult to
   forge then security codes, passwords, hardware keys and
   so forth. Biometric- based authentication applications
   require workstation and network access, single sign-on,
   application logon, data protection, remote access to
   resources, transaction security, and Web security.
   Strong personal authentication procedures could help
   strong e-commerce and e-government applications. More
   importantly applications such as secure electronic
   banking, investing and other financial transactions,
   retail sales, law enforcement, and health and social services are already benefiting from these technologies.
   Another promising area is the personal authentication for
   large- scale enterprises where Biometric technologies are
   expected to play a key role. Point-of-Sale and protection
   of all types of digital content such as in Digital
   Rights Management and Health Care applications are
   the other possible applications. I n t e g r a t i o n o f
   Biometric technologies with other technologies such as
   smart cards, encryption keys and digital signatures,
   biometrics he lp s nearly all aspects of the economy and
   our daily lives. Examples of other current applications
   include speaker verification for television home shopping,
   Internet banking, and users’ authentication in a variety of
   social services [27].
