Abstract
Systems and methods for detecting replay attacks on a biometric-based authentication system are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the method includes generating a command set causing a fingerprint sensor to sequentially conduct a scan of pixels in the fingerprint sensor, wherein the command set includes one or more replay attack detection commands causing the fingerprint sensor to capture replay attack detection data, sending the commands to the fingerprint sensor, receiving fingerprint data, and evaluating the fingerprint data for the replay attack detection data. In some embodiments, the one or more replay attack detection commands include repeating the scan of a selected row of pixels, providing insufficient bias to a selected row of pixels, and/or providing too much bias to a selected row of pixels. In some embodiments, the replay attack detection commands are randomly generated for each scan. Various other aspects of the technology are described herein.
