Topic: Can those Biometrics be hacked (Read 291 times)
For me yes, because today we are working more on technology and there are people, students tudy about techology, especially in programming and for them it is posible that biometric can they hack easily. And if there is one thing or link they know about us, our sacrifices in our business were gone same like an ash.
it is interesting nobody offers standard Biometric ID solution for blockchain, it seems that "real identity" may be required for certain blochchain applications of future - insurance, etc
currently, some projects like Humaniq use third-party providers
do you think open source Bio ID may be a good project?

We're working on a biometric ID solution right now that implements Linux Hyperledger. We're addressing the "hacking" problem by centralizing our KYC (Know Your Customer) service. The idea is that institutions may ping our private blockchain with real identity content and biometrics provided by the user. Our algorithm then compares it to what we have on file, and without distributing any personal information, we provide a yes/no response validating the person as who they claim to be.
Thanks for the answers. Thought everything happens on Blockchain. If they can be hacked, guess Bitcoin can be hacked aswell.
Its just another risk of having bitcoin as currency, just as we have our own real money it can be stolen as well. And people always trying to beat the system whether its to do good or bad things. And i think the only main safety we can rely on ourselves is not to share any spesific data in the network and just keep it hidden in the vault

Lots of Altcoins that deal on Biometrics and digital identification are Springing up everywhere, I keep wondering how safe they are. Can they be hacked by anyone or the government and the owners identities known?
From Article of an Altcoin called Antshares:
"For digital identities on blockchains to have rights, they need to be legally authenticated. The most widely accepted digital identity system is based on the PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) X.509 standard. We will implement a hybrid trust mechanism supporting X.509 + Web of Trust. Our verification of identity when issuing or using digital identities includes the use of facial features, fingerprint, voice, SMS and other multi-factor authentication methods. "

The answer is Yes. Especially if you have uploaded a photo. Facial recognition software is good enough now to be able to match it to photos online, especially photos uploaded to Facebook, which of course will have you name, date of birth, where you went to school and everything else.
Be careful about sharing biometric data.
I am sure that everything can be hacked, the important thing that how long does it take to hack them. So people should be careful as they are with their passwords.
