Abstract

A method of securing biometric information may involve obtaining a digital image that contains biometric information. The method may involve identifying at least one region of the digital image that contains the biometric information and masking the biometric information. The biometric information may be a user's fingerprint and the user's fingerprint may be sufficiently masked that the masked fingerprint would not be accepted as authentic by most or all biometric authentication systems as matching the original fingerprint.
