Social Aspects of Reliability and Security Issues of Authentication Solutions

Abstract

This paper marks out possible further research directions based on the research problem that security awareness or unawareness has an impact on the correct approach of society-related security issues, acting as a human risk factor. Considering technically emerging reliability problems of authentication solutions (focusing on biometrics) as vulnerabilities, the author makes suggestions upon implementing possible risk management steps. Elements of the complex answer given to security questions related to private and organisational (employee) behavior can be an increase of the level of leadership commitment, evolvement of the organisational security awareness and continuous improvement of problem handling process.
