As one of the most promising biometric technologies, vein pattern
recognition (VPR) is quickly taking root around the world and may
soon dominate applications where people focus is key. Among the
reasons for VPR's growing acceptance and use: it is more accurate
than many other biometric methods, it offers greater resistance to
spoofing, it focuses on people and their privacy, and has few
negative cultural connotations. Vein Pattern Recognition: A
Privacy-Enhancing Biometric provides a comprehensive and practical
look at biometrics in general and at vein pattern recognition
specifically. It discusses the emergence of this reliable but
underutilized technology and evaluates its capabilities and
benefits. The author, Chuck Wilson, an industry veteran with more
than 25 years of experience in the biometric and electronic
security fields, examines current and emerging VPR technology along
with the myriad applications of this dynamic technology. Wilson
explains the use of VPR and provides an objective comparison of the
different biometric methods in use today-including fingerprint,
eye, face, voice recognition, and dynamic signature verification.
Highlighting current VPR implementations, including its widespread
acceptance and use for identity verification in the Japanese
banking industry, the text provides a complete examination of how
VPR can be used to protect sensitive information and secure
critical facilities. Complete with best-practice techniques, the
book supplies invaluable guidance on selecting the right
combination of biometric technologies for specific applications and
on properly implementing VPR as part of an overall security system.
Each part of ""Under the Social Influence"" captures specific
(positive and negative) influences that can impact a successful
life and career. It uses examples of what generally happens, unique
and sometimes humorous stories of what went wrong and then methods
for altering the reader's behavior as they grow and mature. The
book appeals to Gen Y workers seeking their first "real" job,
employers looking to figure out why their millennial workers act as
they do, and helps everyone put life in perspective and focus on
what's really important. This is a cut-to-the-chase, no nonsense,
real world, tough love playbook for those struggling to get ahead
and those under the influence of negative social situations.
