Abstract

The purpose of this paper was an investigation into System Components that Supports Biometric systems. The study specifically sought to investigate the following components; the architectural models, systems, and components that support biometric system and the limitation of the architectural components. A quantitative research design was adopted. The respondents were selected with the Purposive and Convenience sampling methods and out of the 100 questionnaires used 76 were received and used in the descriptive analysis. The study found out that the architecture made the system effective, ensured data security, and provided accurate data. Based on the findings of the analysis the following recommendations were made: to avoid noise in sensed data, data controllers should ensure that the sensor is properly maintained and the introduction of temporal variations of the system minimize since it causes the system from successfully matching for genuine user or be incorrectly matched with the imposters, resulting in decrease in the performance of the system.
