High security and assurance

Drawbacks of biometric are:-

1. Costs – Significant investment needed in biometrics for security

2. Data breaches – Biometric databases can still be hacked

3. Tracking and data – Biometric devices like facial recognition systems can limit privacy for users

4. Bias – Machine learning and algorithms must be very advanced to minimize biometric demographic bias

5. False positives and inaccuracy – False rejects and false accepts can still occur preventing select users from accessing systems
