An Implementation of a Security Token System using USB

USB를 이용하는 보안 토큰 시스템의 구현

The match-on-token is a system which executes the user-authentication on the system using the user's biometric information. Nowadays, due to increase of request of the secure user-authentication on various parts, it comes to more use. In this paper, the match-on-token system under development by ETRI is described. The system consists of a host and an emulator board. USB is employed as the communication channel between them. First, the hooting code of the emulator board was programmed and tested in order that USB programs and the finger-print matching program can be executed correctly. Then, host programs cooperating with the board was designed, implemented and tested. Finally, future research including optimization of applications on the match-on-token will be mentioned.
