Recently, biometrics technology such as fingerprint and iris has been spreading, and so called `Telebiometrics` technology, which is even more advanced, has been speeding up commercialization. In Korea, the Korea Internet Promotion Agency plans to complete the technology development by the end of next year and to transfer technology to the private sector and commercialize it.

According to Korea Internet and Security Agency (KISA) together with Seoul National University College of Medicine, they established a database (DB) by testing brain waves and electrocardiograms for 200 people (90% of ordinary people, alcoholic addicts and other 10%) on planning to build a database (DB) by testing brain waves and electrocardiogram.

KISA and Seoul National University have completed DB construction for 100 people last year. However, brain waves and electrocardiograms can be changed by human sensibility, alcohol, drugs, etc. They plan to develop sophisticated algorithms using mass test DB in order to improve accuracy.

Telebiocognition is the next generation biometric technology by using bio-signals such as brain waves and electrocardiogram. Experts explain that bio-signals of electroencephalograms and electrocardiograms are relatively difficult to detect as they are detected by electrical signals as compared with existing biometric information such as fingerprints, faces, irises, and veins.

KISA believes that ICT convergence services such as Fintech, smart medical and wearable devices, which have emerged as a recent issue, can be improved.

In fact, in May, the iris recognition function installed on the Samsung smartphone Galaxy S8 was opened to the German chaos computer club (CCC). It printed a photo of the enlarged eye area to the printer, placed the contact lens on the photograph, and released the iris recognition lock in front of the Galaxy S8 camera lens. Meanwhile, there are also simple ways to forge fingerprints using wood bond bonds. Users can suffer serious damage continuously since biometric information cannot be changed once it is leaked.

Kim Jae-sung, a researcher at KISA Information Security R & D Technology Sharing Center Security Technology Diffusion Team, said, "Biometrics technology is spreading and spreading through mobile, but telia biometrics is attracting attention because it is easily exposed to intelligent hacking and attack techniques. We are building a close working relationship with a number of institutions and professional groups around the world, including the United States and Spain, for global standardization."

Researcher Kim said, "The UK and Canada Banking Regulations already have a pilot service, but ECG and EEG signals may be less accurate due to the presence of alcohol.¡±

On the other hand, KISA is expected to attend the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T) ABC2017 International Conference to be held in Busan on September 27 and 28 to explain the telecom platform
