Enhance cybersecurity awareness and survivability for DoD, industry partners, and academia in the face of the ever-increasing threat of cyber attacks. Cybersecurity (CS) includes managing risks related to the use, processing, storage, and transmission of information and the systems and processes used for those purposes, including analog and physical form. CS includes information availability, identification and authentication, confidentiality, integrity, and non-repudiation as well as the economic considerations with respect to selection of CS techniques, CS processes, and industry trends.

Hackers from X-Lab have developed a system that can hack any fingerprint scanners in 20 minutes. They are using a 3-D printer a clone the fingerprints. This is especially dangerous for smartphones, including I-Phones that require fingerprint scans.

with the advancement in the technology, finger print scanner does not offer state of the art security any more. your fingerprint or face scan (template data) stored in the database could be replaced by a hacker to gain unauthorised access to a system. besides this it has been observed that physical copy or spoof can be created from the stored data. however, to protect from this it is important to build strong encryption techniques. while also use AI to protect the system.
