Abstract - Biometric systems are vulnerable to spoofing attack. A reliable and efficient countermeasure is needed in order to combat the epidemic growth in identity theft. To ensure biometric system security, liveness assessment can be applied in order to guard against such harmful spoofing attacks. In this paper, we present novel software based protection measure against fraudulent biometric system access attempt. Legitimate biometric sample comprises of efficient information that can be analyzed to discriminate it from self-manufactured ,synthetic or reconstructed fake biometric trait used in fraudulent system access. This novel software based method computes more than 25 Reference and No-Reference image quality features of biometric sample to verify its legitimacy. These extracted features are efficient to judge between legitimate and imposter sample. Proposed approach makes biometric system more user friendly, fast, less complex than the hardware based system and more suitable for real time applications.
