Biometric Verification System for Automated Teller Machine (ATM)

Biometric Verification System for Automated Teller Machine (ATM) will serve as
an alternative for the current verification system that uses ATM card and personal
identification number (PIN) to protect against fraud and effectively eliminating most
common attempts to gain unauthorized access. With biometric technology, customer can
gain access to their account through smart card approach combined with biometric
technology to automatically identify individuals using their distinct physical or
behavioral characteristics. The main objective of this project is to solve the problems
that arise from using PIN as the base of ATM verification system. These include
unauthorized access into financial accounts, stealing money, ATM fraud and many
more. To ensure a reliable project output, the author had outlined the scope of study for
the proposed project. It involves the study of ATM system, biometrics technology,
architecture, the benefits and the drawback of each approach and the current trend in the
market. The development of this system will be based on the RAD methodology.
