Abstract

A system is described for CE appliances which employs a biometrically auditable public key infrastructure for securing multimedia content (BAPTISM). It is based on biometrically generated key-pairs and is designed to protect the fair use rights of end-users. By taking advantage of low-cost fingerprint scanners the system can be readily incorporated into networked handheld and CE appliances.
