Watermarking Algorithm for Encrypting Fingerprint Image -A MatLab Implementation

Abstract

In today’s world of electronic communication we use to send and receive data through internet. Apart from sending data to the correct recipient, the aspect of secure transmission also comes to picture i.e. data should remain unhampered. There are many techniques and algorithm coming in existence to provide secure transmission of data. Biometrics being one of the fast growing industries for identifying a person also needs to be secure. In this paper we are suggesting an algorithm to encrypt a fingerprint sample so that it can securely be transmitted over internet.
