Hybrid Authentication Techniques for Workers Identification and Tracking | Chapter 13 | Current Research in Science and Technology Vol. 4

It is obvious that most establishments are faced with security challenges. Consequently securing and protecting our identity and valuable data have become areas of great concern which cannot be ignored. Continual quest for a more authentic solution to track, verify and checkmate amongst others, staff movement within an organization, their dedication to duty and a logical system of wading off intruders. Multimodal Authentication Techniques is an option for an improvement. It creates a greater level of assurance of an accurate match in authentication, verification, tracking and identification systems. It helps to overcome limitations of single biometric solutions to reduce the ability for the system to be tricked fraudulently. It is best, most efficient, effective and most reliable when Biometric Technique and Magnetic Coded Swiping Card or Barcode Reader Technology is combined. A Hybrid of Structured System Analysis and Design Methodology (SSADM) and Object Oriented Analysis and Design Methodology (OOADM) was used. The software was developed using Microsoft Visual Basic Programming Language, and Microsoft Access as the database. A parallel changeover was also recommended after deployment to avoid the disruption of the existing processes.
