| - | **Biometric Authentication** is a security process that relies on the unique biological characteristics of individuals to verify they are who they say they are. Biometric [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:a:authentication|authentication]] systems compare physical or behavioral traits to stored, confirmed, authentic data in a database. If both samples of the biometric data match, authentication is confirmed. Typically, biometric authentication is used to manage access to physical and digital resources, such as buildings, rooms, and computing devices. | + | **Biometric Authentication** is a security process that relies on the unique biological characteristics of individuals to verify they are who they say they are.
