Abstract:
1. A system for verifying the identity of an individual by employing biometric data features associated with the individual, which system comprises at least one or more hardware components, at least one of said hardware components having at least one first hardware component specific data feature associated therewith, a biometric verifying application having at least one specific application data feature associated therewith, wherein said at least one application specific data feature is linked to said at least one hardware component specific data feature, an enrolment means, and a verifying means, wherein said enrolment means are arranged in deriving a first biometric template data, said first biometric template data being a biometric encryption template and associated with a first set of first biometric data features of said individual, and in receiving a further set of first biometric data features of said individual, and in deriving a further biometric template data associated with said further set of first biometric data, and wherein said enrolment means are arranged in irreversible linking at least one of said application specific data feature with said biometric template data, such that said application specific data feature forms an integral part of the biometric template, wherein said verifying means are arranged in comparing the first biometric template data with the further encrypted biometric template data to check for correspondence, wherein the identity of the individual is verified if correspondence exists, wherein said verifying means are arranged in obtaining at least one further hardware component specific data feature from said at least one hardware component and in obtaining the first hardware component specific data feature linked with said at least one application specific data feature and in comparing both said first and further hardware component specific data features to check for correspondence.
