Conventional authentication methods
„something that you have“ – key, magnetic card or smartcard

e-business
Multimodal Biometric Systems
Combination of biometric technologies
Fingerprint and face recognition
Face recognition and lip movement
Fingerprint recognition and dynamic signature verification
increase the level of security achieved by the system
