The issue of privacy has become a crucial concern when carrying out identity verification using biometrics. It is necessary for a biometrics verification system to provide full privacy of biometric data. Full privacy means that the verification server performs biometrics matching algorithms without the knowledge of the users' biometric data, including templates and samples. Due to efficiency and low cost, fingerprints are the biometric characteristic most commonly used for identity verification. In this manuscript we propose a fingerprint verification scheme with full privacy. In this scheme, the honest-but-curious server, which is not given users’ fingerprint templates and samples, can perform a minutiae-based fingerprint matching algorithm. Finally, we will demonstrate the efficiency and the privacy of the verification process.
