Abstract: This work proposes an efficient approach for the construction and the protection of a dynamic and evolutionary multimodal biometric database. The last is dedicated to a biometric authentication system operating on a set of connected sites. For a better protection of acquired data, a topological watermarking module is developed to dissimulate the related enrolled person’s files links.
Keywords: Biometric databases, multimodal authentication, digital watermarking, cross-section topology.
