The privacy is the main concern in the present days and especially in biometrics verification of passport using individual's personal data. Many researchers have put forward various solutions for biometric verification system. The existing visual cryptographic scheme for biometric verification system provides security to the face image present in the biometric template during the storage and transmission of data. The proposed hybrid architecture employs the advantages of visual cryptography and steganography for passport verification. It extends the privacy to the image as well as the personal information with less communication complexity. It also provides greater level of security.
