METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACCESSING DIGITAL DATA USING BIOMETRIC INFORMATION

摘要

A method and system for registering a user device in a domain of a domain authority (106) using biometric information is provided. The method includes sending (402) a request (by the user device) to the domain authority for joining the domain. The user device making the request is then authenticated (400) and the biometric information of the user is then requested (406). Further, the method includes authenticating (412) the biometric information of the user. The security information of the domain is transferred (414) to the user device once the authentication of the user device and the biometric information are both successful.
