Researchers from New York University have created a set of master fingerprint keys that can be used to spoof biometric identification systems. While the database of fingerprints used by the researchers had a chance of falsely matching with a random fingerprint one out of 1000 times, the master prints they generated had the power to falsely match one out of five times.
Their paper was published on the pre-print server ArXiv and proves that fingerprints can be artificially generated using machine learning and used to trick databases secured by fingerprint authentication. This is alarming because a growing number of devices,…
