Abstract | Biometric system security requires cryptographic protection of sample data under certain circumstances. We assess low complexity selective encryption schemes applied to JPEG2000 compressed iris data by conducting iris recognition on the selectively encrypted data. This paper specifically compares the effects of a recently proposed approach, i.e. applying selective encryption to normalised texture data, to encrypting classical sample data. We assess achieved protection level as well as computational cost of the considered schemes, and particularly highlight the role of segmentation in obtaining surprising results. |
