Abstract:
1. A method of biometric verification using an access software application configured to access another application, system or other software entity to protect biometric data against spoofing or theft, the method comprising the steps: (a) establishing parameters of the access software application; (b) generating a biometric template for a user by sampling; (c) integrating into the access software application, by means of partial evaluation, the parameters and the biometric template; (d) performing tamper-resistant software (TRS) encoding to the access software application including storing the biometric data in an encoded format that is irreversible, the step of performing TRS encoding being performed according to one of the following: (e) employing the biometric template which has been integrated into the access software application to evaluate biometric data provided by a user seeking to access the other application, system or software entity to provide an evaluation result which either permits or denies access by the user wherein the TRS encoding comprises mass data encoding for data in array, table or message buffer form; and
